Brule 2 & 5 Miler

Lace up your shoes for the Brule 2 & 5 Miler on Sunday, August 9, 2026, in the charming town of Brule, Wisconsin. This event, hosted by the Brule River Lions Club, promises a memorable experience amidst the natural beauty of the Brule Forest.

For a more relaxed experience, the 2-Miler provides a delightful out-and-back route on Afterhours Road, making it a perfect choice for youth, families, and even well-behaved leashed dogs. The scenic Bois Brule River can often be admired from the trails, adding to the picturesque setting. Both races start and finish at the Afterhours Ski Trail Parking entrance, located one mile west of Brule on US Highway 2. The Brule River Lions Club works hard to deliver a memorable race experience, fostering a strong sense of community and camaraderie for all who participate.
