The Goose bumps Run/Walk
Now in its 15th year, this non-profit, donation-based event supports the local community.
You can walk or run as little—or as much—as you like over 6 or 24 hours. Whether you do one scenic loop or aim for a personal record, this event is all about your goals. Some participants enjoy a relaxed pace, while others push themselves to complete marathon, ultra, or even 100+ mile distances.
What Makes Goose bumps Special?
- 100% of donations stay local to support those battling Lupus.
- No entry fee required – we operate fully on donations.
- Run or walk on a beautiful 2.8-mile wooded trail along the backwaters of the Mississippi River in La Crosse, WI. (*Course distance may vary slightly depending on weather.)
A single aid station is available on the course to keep you fueled.
More Than a Race – It’s a Community
This event is designed for everyone – from serious endurance athletes to casual walkers. Bring your family, challenge yourself, or just enjoy the atmosphere.
