Lace up your shoes for the Lake Pacawa parkrun, a free, fun, and friendly weekly 5K community event held on Saturday, March 28, 2026, in scenic Plover, WI. This 5000m course is accurately measured and takes participants along Lake Pacawa on entirely permanent, flat paved paths, offering picturesque lake views as you complete the loops around the water and a small retaining pond. The route starts and finishes near the boat launch, ensuring easy access. While you embrace the outdoors, be mindful that typical race day conditions in late March include highs around 46F and lows around 26F, with an 11% chance of precipitation, so dress accordingly for a brisk Wisconsin morning.

Lake Pacawa parkrun is a volunteer-led initiative, welcoming runners, joggers, and walkers of all paces and ages. It's a chance to connect with the community and enjoy a timed 5K in a supportive atmosphere. While there are no formal aid stations on the course, participants can utilize park facilities, though restrooms might be closed during winter months, so plan ahead. After you cross the finish line, join fellow participants for a post-parkrun coffee at Mission Coffee House, a cherished tradition that fosters camaraderie and connection.

This inclusive event, set in the vibrant Lake Pacawa Park, is more than just a run; it’s a community gathering designed to encourage physical activity and enjoyment of the beautiful surroundings. Whether you're aiming for a personal best or simply want to enjoy a refreshing walk, the Lake Pacawa parkrun provides an engaging and accessible experience for everyone.
