Run or walk a scenic loop around Lake Elmo (1.5 miles), then celebrate your finish with an optional polar plunge into the icy waters to welcome the year with energy and courage! Have no fear, we have heated tents on site for you to hang out before you head home.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best or just here for the plunge and laughs, this event is all about starting fresh, having fun and saying Yes. You. Can. in the new year!
