Michigan City-La Porte, IN

Michigan City and La Porte sit on the southern shore of Lake Michigan with flat, windswept terrain that suits fast running — the MS Warrior Dash 5K has drawn crowds to the dunes area, though the local running scene centers on park loops and beach paths. Cyclists thrive here: the Tour de La Porte routes (21km variants) offer gentle rolling courses through farmland east of the city, and the Apple Cider Century Bicycle Tour connects the region's rural networks for a full century ride. The Indiana Dunes National Park is minutes away for harder trail running and off-road cycling.
