Event Overview
The Zachariah's Acres Fall Run, Walk & Roll is a fundraising event held in the town of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Participants utilize the grounds of a 501(c)(3) organization that provides nature-based experiences for children with special needs and their families. The event proceeds support the operations of these programs and the maintenance of the facilities.
Course and Location
The event takes place at Zachariah's Acres, a location featuring prairie grass and wildflowers. The site is used throughout the year for various physical activities and educational programs, including guided nature walks, fishing, and outdoor recreation. The property serves multiple schools and community partners for vocational training and hands-on learning in a natural setting.
Participation Options
There are several ways for individuals and families to participate in the event:
- Half Marathon: A 13.1 mile running race.
- 5K: A 3.1 mile running race.
- 5K Ruck: A 3.1 mile activity involving walking or hiking with a weighted rucksack.
- Family Walk & Roll: A walking-only event through the grounds.
The rucking category is a recent addition to the event schedule, based on military training methods where participants carry heavy loads over distance. The Family Walk & Roll is designed to be accessible for different mobility needs on the property's trails. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
