Viking Striders Fun Run

The Viking Striders Fun Run takes place in Valders, Wisconsin, with the main event area located at 420 N Liberty St. This athletic event features multiple distances and categories for different age groups. Participants can choose between individual races or a combined challenge.

The available events include:
