Thanks Sandy is a 9 mile trail run held at Kohler-Andrae State Park in Sheboygan, WI and organized by TYDISH Running. The course mixes wide trails, campground paths, beach running and a boardwalk, and features a total elevation ascent of 509 ft and descent of 485 ft.
The route moves from inland trails to shoreline sand around mile 1.05, follows roads and the Black River trail system, and includes a roughly 1.45 mile cordwalk section and about 0.75 miles on the beach before returning to the finish near the shelter. Course markings include ground utility flags, orange cones, tall 5 ft flags and blinking lights for guidance. Organizers set a three hour completion window for the course.
Aid and services: a single on course aid station with water and an electrolyte drink is provided in the Black River section near mile 5.5. Post-event refreshments and snacks are offered, including gluten free and vegan options. The event operates as cupless; participants should provide their own drinking vessel. No alcohol is provided and noise makers are restricted.
