The Mill Towns Race Series 2026

The Mill Towns Race Series begins and ends in Memorial Park in Dundas, Minnesota, offering marathon, half marathon, and 10K distances on an October Sunday. All three races are chip-timed, and the marathon course is certified for Boston Marathon qualification. The event is designed for runners seeking a simple race day: parking, bib pickup, start, finish, food, medals, and pre- and post-race activities are all located within the park. The course is flat and looped, following the Cannon River between Dundas and Northfield through a route bordered by trees. The 10K completes one loop, the half marathon completes two, and the marathon completes four. This means runners traverse the same sections multiple times rather than a point-to-point course. The series is USATF sanctioned, with the marathon and half marathon courses certified as MN24023MAB. Packet pickup is available before race day and on race morning. Shirts are an optional add-on during registration.
