Trail Training

Update: May 1:  Registration has reached capacity.  However, you may add your name to the waitlist.

Hello trail lovers! Dairyland Dirtbags is back for fall 2025 and we couldn’t be more excited to resume the adventure with you.  
 
New this year – a 50K goal race option! See below for specifics. 

Explore the best trails in the area while receiving instruction, support, and camaraderie throughout your training! We’ll be utilizing our favorite segments of the Ice Age Trail to prepare for the Fall Back Blast Trail Running Festival complete with coaches leading, floating and picking up the rear of the herd. There will also be an optional group camping trip at Peninsula State Park for additional fun, socialization, and trail experience. 
 
**Participation Cap: 50 Participants** 
Due to the nature of this program and limited parking at many trailheads, we are capping participation at 50 people. We will update the website when the program has reached capacity.
