Victory Lakes Voyage Challenge
New for 2026, we’re introducing the Victory Lakes Voyage Challenge — an endurance journey that connects two iconic Twin Cities races. Participants who complete the Victory 5K and 10K and the City of Lakes Half Marathon in 2026 will earn an exclusive Voyage Challenge medal to celebrate their 22.4-mile accomplishment across these two storied events. The Voyage Challenge is designed for runners who want to take their training to the next level and earn a one-of-a-kind keepsake for their achievement.
