Lace up for Campwannarun on April 25, 2026, a beloved spring race offering Half Marathon (13.1M), 11K, and 5K distances in the picturesque White Bear Lake, MN. This event is renowned for its largely fast and flat, certified courses that wind along the stunning shores of Bald Eagle Lake, with the Half Marathon also venturing to the nearby Otter Lake and incorporating some gently rolling hills through the surrounding countryside. Runners consistently praise the "simply gorgeous" and scenic routes, making it a favorite for those seeking an early spring challenge or a prime training run for major events like Grandma's Marathon or the Twin Cities Marathon. Typical race day conditions in late April offer comfortable highs around 58°F and lows of 39°F, with a minimal 16% chance of precipitation, providing an ideal climate for a strong performance.

The Campwannarun experience, organized by Tri Fitness, prioritizes runner support and unique perks. Aid stations are strategically placed approximately every 1.5 miles, fully stocked with water, Hammer Heed electrolytes, and gels to keep you fueled. Participants can enjoy the convenience of free parking near the start/finish line at Bald Eagle Recreation Area, located at 5767 Hugo Road, White Bear Township. Beyond the well-supported course, every finisher receives a custom-molded medal to commemorate their achievement, and free professional photography captures your race-day memories. Adding to the community spirit, a portion of the proceeds supports the White Bear Lake History Center History Camp. After crossing the finish line, celebrate your accomplishment with a complimentary pancake breakfast, weather permitting.
