Flannel 5K / 10K 10K

About this race

The Flannel 5K/10K, scheduled for February 15, 2025, in Menomonee Falls, WI, is a winter running event that embraces the cozy spirit of the season. While specific historical details about its founding aren't provided, its recurring nature suggests it has become a beloved annual tradition for runners looking for a unique challenge. Participants can anticipate a festive atmosphere, likely encouraging attire that includes the namesake flannel shirts, and a camaraderie built around braving the winter elements together. The race typically takes place on paved paths within the Menomonee Falls area, offering a generally flat and accessible terrain suitable for runners of all levels. However, being a February event in Wisconsin, participants should be prepared for typical winter conditions which may include cold temperatures, potential snow or ice on the course, and variable weather. The 10K distance offers a more substantial challenge for those seeking it, while the 5K provides a shorter, equally engaging option. This event is notable for its seasonal theme and the opportunity to enjoy the crisp winter air and scenic, albeit potentially wintry, surroundings.
