Thank you to our 2008 Grand Prix Sponsors

Check out beautiful Chester Woods by running the challenging 10 mile or the easier 5k. Chester Woods Park is located on the headwaters of Bear Creek in the rugged bluff country of Southeastern Minnesota.

The 5k will take you along the Chester Woods reservoir on wood chip paths, out to the park entrance, and then you will follow along a wooded trail to the rim of a gorgeous valley below the dam, and finish by the fishing pier.
