Mike Schweitzer

This is an opportunity for family, friends and coworkers that knew Mike to share in his memory, recognizing both his love of running and his passion as a wildland firefighter.  We also invite people who may not have known Mike, but are members of the wildland firefighting community, the running community, and those who just want to enjoy a spring day outdoors to join us.  Families are welcome. 

Course:
The entire course is a mixture of road and trail in and around the historic town of Etna.  The 5km route winds through the town.  The 10km and half marathon events continue through the woods outside of town.  The final leg of the half marathon winds through ranches and farmland before returning to the Pleasure Park.   The course will be marked and there will be volunteers to help direct runners.  Water aid stations will be provided along the course for the 10km and half marathon routes.
