About the race
The Crankenstein returns for 2025 as a two-person bike/run relay in Winona Forest, Mannsville, NY. The approximate 6–8 mile course winds along dirt roads and forest trails, all off-pavement. Teams share a single bike and alternate running and biking, with at least two leg exchanges to standardize the race; the finish time is when both teammates cross the line.
The event is described as one of Winona's coolest races and offers a fun, non-technical atmosphere on a beautiful forest day. Special features include post-race hearty foods, commemorative magnet swag, prizes for fastest teams, and fundraising for WFRA. Road bikes or hybrids recommended; dog leash restrictions apply.
