Mike Ariens Run/Walk
The Mike Ariens Run/Walk is a community event in Brillion, Wisconsin, powered by Emplify Health by Bellin. The event promotes health, wellness and community in honor of the late Mike Ariens. It offers multiple distances and uses a mix of trails, conservation land and downtown streets.
The main routes travel along the Mike Ariens "Run for Life" Trail, AriensCo conservation land, through downtown Brillion and the trail system at Ariens Nordic Center. The Kids Run uses Ariens Nordic Center trails exclusively. Participants and volunteers receive a Mike Ariens Run/Walk T-shirt and can enjoy an ice cream treat at the finish area. Medals are distributed at the finish and top finisher awards are presented for the 5K and 10K; the Kids 1K Fun Run does not have overall awards.
Packet pick-up is available at the Ariens Nordic Center Trailhead on the Friday before the event and at the AriensCo corporate location on race day. Shuttle buses will transport participants and spectators between Plant 1 and the Ariens Nordic Center during the event. Volunteer roles include course setup, packet pickup, course marshals, finish line support, water stations and medical assistance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
