About this adventure
Run around the beloved Chain of Lakes at the annual Drumstick Dash at Lake Harriet Bandshell in South Minneapolis! Benefiting local food shelves, this scenic, paved lakeside loop invites runners, walkers, and parents with strollers to complete either a 5K or a double-loop 10K with uninterrupted lake views. Kids cheer for the 0.5-mile Cranberry Kids Dash and the hilarious costume contest featuring families dressed as roast turkeys, cranberries, and pumpkin pies. Fresh hot cider, hot cocoa, and mini donuts await at the finish line by the heated pavilion restrooms.
