A Pot of Gold Shared Half Marathon and 5K
The Mahaska County Sheriff's Reserves host this annual running event in Oskaloosa, Iowa. Currently in its third year, the event serves as a fundraiser for local scholarships and reserve funding projects for Mahaska County. Participants can choose between two primary distances:
- Half Marathon
- 5K
The half marathon course follows the Mahaska County Recreation Trail, circling the city of Oskaloosa with some sections on residential streets. The route is characterized by hilly terrain and various natural scenery. Both races begin and end at the Lacey Complex Stadium on Stadium Drive, which provides central parking for participants.
All participants who complete their events receive a finisher medal. Additionally, the top three male and female finishers in each age division for both the half marathon and the 5K are recognized with awards. T-shirts are provided to participants based on availability at the time of registration. Packet pick-up is available the evening before the race at the Emergency Management Agency Building, or at the start line on the morning of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
