Brief Description

The Athletic Republic Run has been the lakes area premier half-marathon, half-marathon relay, 5K and 1-mile event since 2007. With race numbers doubling every year since it’s beginning, we’re expecting 1500 runners/walkers in 2013. The beautiful scenery of the Fergus Falls area, the variety of race lengths and ideal temperates in early June make the race a perfect fit for the casual runner/walker to the serious competitor who wants to tackle the challenging hills of the half-marathon course.

2013 Proceeds

All proceeds will go to Lake Region Healthcare's Cancer Care & Research Center.

Online Registration

Online Registration closes on Thursday, May 30th at 11:59pm. Participants can still register for the event on Friday and on race day until 8:00am, at Athletic Republic located at 619 S. Cascade St.

Combo Race

In 2013 a Combo Race participant can race in the 5K & 1-mile! Races start with a large gap to allow family & friends to participate with children in the 1-mile & then run the 5K. Anybody who signs up for the Combo will be treated as a 5K racer meaning that you will receive a 5K t-shirt & be considered for awards only in the 5K. Any child under 12 that races in the Combo will receive a 1-mile medal and still be considered in their age category for the 5K. No 1-mile shirts will be given.

Pre-Registration

Pre-Registered participants are encouraged to pick up their Race Packet information the night before at Athletic Republic, located at 619 S. Cascade Street. (corner of Cascade St. and Vasa Ave.)

Additional Information

In 2012 the 2-person half marathon relay was a hit; a great event for those looking for something longer than a 5K, but not as long as a 1/2 marathon. Proceeds benefit Lake Region Healthcare's Cancer Care and Research Center. Area temperatures average between 76°F and 55°F in June, while rainfall amounts average about 3.75 inches for the month. Trophies will be awarded to the top overall male and female while top three finishers in each age division will receive medals. All Half Marathon and Half Marathon Relay participants will also receive a medal.
