Dances With Dirt Devil's Lake

Dances With Dirt Devil's Lake is a trail race held July 10, 2027, in Baraboo, Wisconsin, at Devil's Lake State Park. The event offers multiple distance options and is run on a mix of single-track, gravel road, grass, paved trail, golf course cart paths, and some off-trail sections.

Courses feature steep climbs, rocky ridgelines, technical singletrack, and steep descents, with prominent scenic viewpoints. Courses are flagged by color: 10K white, 13.1M blue, and the marathon plus ultras in pink. Aid stations provide water, sports drink, gel packets, soda, salty and sweet snacks, and fruit; restrooms are available intermittently. The event is cupless, so runners must carry their own cup, bottle, or hydration pack.

The race uses intermediate and final cutoff points; the 50 mile field requires maintaining about a 15.5 minute per mile pace to finish in the published time and has specified checkpoint rules at Steinke Basin and other locations. Mandatory check in at some aid stations is required for the 50K and 50M fields. One drop bag location is available at Meadow Aid with placement windows assigned by distance.

After the race there is a post race meal and a complimentary beer for participants. Awards include overall top three male and female and age group awards three deep. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
