Highline Half Marathon
The event is a half marathon of 13.1 Miles that follows roads around Lake Koronis near Paynesville, Minnesota, with multiple hills along the route. The venue is Highline Construction, 16124 Old Lake Rd, Paynesville, MN. Participation options include individual runners, 2-person and 4-person relay teams, walkers, and a virtual option. Virtual entry carries a higher fee to cover shirt shipping and virtual participants are not required to record a time. Walkers are not timed.
Water and aid are provided at multiple points along the course, including stations near Koronis Ministries, at the top of Crest Ridge Rd, Baywater Drive Hill, the Regional Park crossing on County Rd 20, Frontage Rd off Hwy 4, and near Old Lake Rd and Highline Construction. Trash cans are spaced along the course and the organizer requests that cups not be dropped on the route. Two utility vehicles will patrol the course and carry extra water.
Relay teams have marked exchange locations at about 3, 6 and 9 miles; restrooms and water are available at each exchange point. Bus service is provided to transport relay members between the finish and exchange areas. Race entry includes a race shirt (size guaranteed for registrations by August 8), refreshments after the race, and a finisher medal.
All proceeds support the Fallen Lineman Organization, whose mission is to memorialize fallen electrical line workers and assist affected families. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
