Eau Claire, WI

Eau Claire sits at the confluence of the Eau Claire and Chippewa rivers in west-central Wisconsin, offering predominantly flat to gently rolling terrain ideal for distance running. The Eau Claire Marathon hugs the riverbank and parks through town; the Festival Foods Turkey Trot draws hundreds each November. Cyclists use the city as a hub for longer gravel and road routes into the surrounding dairy country—the Coon Fork 40 showcases the rolling terrain east toward the Driftless Area, while the Ride Across Wisconsin passes through on its 280km crossing of the state.
