Apple Dumpling Day Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Warm start, moderate wind
Starting at 69°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Temperatures rising to 78°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Moderate winds around 14mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 70% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

Race Info
The Apple Dumpling Day Half Marathon starts in the village of Hustler, Wisconsin, runs about a mile north on the Omaha Trail, then turns and heads south toward Elroy. Runners pass through the 875-foot railroad tunnel, built in 1876, roughly six miles in. The course then leaves the trail for a stretch of Elroy streets that includes a covered bridge and the Elroy Commons, and finishes on the 400 Trail at Schultz Park. It is a point-to-point run on mostly shaded rail-trail on the first Saturday after Labor Day.
