Additional Information

If you’re looking for a more “extreme” form of exhilaration, consider adding a little “splash” to your “dash”! This means, you will walk/run the 5K and then Plunge into Lake Calhoun. Participants plunging into the frigid waters must raise a minimum of $75. This is completely separate from the 5K fee. Plunging for the Plunge 5K participants begins at 10:30 a.m. Remember, if you want to dash and splash, you must register for the Plunge 5K and the Minneapolis Plunge; two separate events and registrations.
