From the Organizer
Welcome to race registration for the 18th Annual Breezy Point 5K, benefiting MN Adult & Teen Challenge – Duluth Campus. The event is located on beautiful Island Lake in Duluth, Minnesota. A FREE run/walk/bike for all ages! This year we are again offering a virtual option for those who are unable attend in person.
ALL runners/walkers/bikers should pre-register using this site by June 13th to guarantee your shirt size (shirts for racers ages 13+). If registering as a family or as a group, please designate a team name (have fun, be creative) so that t-shirts and bibs can be grouped and only one person will do pickup for all. Make sure to share your team name with the rest of your group if they will be registering separately from you.
Each individual person needs to be registered, including children. Racers will be allowed to sign up on race morning starting at 8 a.m. (shirts not guaranteed). On race day, pre-registered racers will pick up their bibs (for all participants) and shirts (for those ages 13+) starting at 8 a.m. and up until the pre-race festivities begin.
Donations – The race and t-shirts are FREE (you can opt out of a shirt if you want), but if you are able to donate, proceeds from the race go to MN Adult & Teen Challenge in Duluth. This rehabilitation program helps individuals gain freedom from addictions. Donations can be made via this registration process online, and/or in person on race day at the t-shirt pickup spot.
