A Western theme is present throughout this fall Minnesota race series, influencing the aid stations, food, music, and finisher prizes. Gear West offers two distances: the Gear Western Country Half Marathon and the Borton Volvo 5k, allowing participants to select either a longer country-road race or a shorter option on the same day. The course incorporates quiet country roads, rolling hills, lakeside sections, autumn foliage, and crushed limestone trails. This event is designed for families and friends, permitting strollers and welcoming leashed dogs. Participants can find warmth inside the store before the start and linger post-race for live music, warm refreshments, awards, and a finisher campfire cup. The crew neck sweatshirt, previously earned by past runners, is now an optional purchase following a reduction in the entry fee.

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.
