Race Course: The race starts and finishes at the winery!  Get ready for an awesome and scenic tour of the vineyards!  If you're looking for a personal best time, this is not the course for you!  Though,  if you're looking for a personal best wine this course is a guaranteed winner!  This course is mostly cross country style and includes some grass and uneven areas.

The race will go on rain or shine. In the event of severe weather conditions or lightning, the race director may delay the start until safer conditions are available. In the event that you choose not to participate in the race, you can also pick up your race packet at the winery even if you are not running, or if you send an email to delores@j3timing.com, so we can transfer you to the virtual wine run and ship your race packet. While we can't predict or control the weather, the one thing that we can guarantee is that there will be a 100% chance of wine at this event.

We are excited to announced that the charity partner for this event is The Nikolas Ritschel Foundation!

The donations from this race will help to fund Mason's Wish (From White Pigeon, MI). "For my Nik’s wish I would love to go behind the scenes at a big zoo and get to see, meet, and play with the zoo animals for a day. Since I was a kid I’ve always thought about becoming a zoologist because I’ve always loved animals and wanted to learn more about them." 

Packet Pick-up will be on Race Day morning ONLY and will begin an hour before the race starts!

Absolutely!  We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.

Please feel free to register through the regular registration link above and you can either: 

1) Pick up packet during packet pickup or on the morning of the race, but run on your own (hint:  wine ticket is still good if you use this strategy)

2) Contact us at any time to switch to the Virtual Wine Run 5k and we'll ship your packet (NEW for 2023: There will be a $10.00 shipping and handling charge for this option)

Also, if you intend on running, but later change your mind and would like to do either of these options, that's ok too!  If you are definitely going to have us ship your packet and run virtually though, we do recommend you follow the instructions below:

1). Go to runsignup.com/profile and log into your account.

2). Click on "Manage Registration" next to this race.

3). On the next page click on transfer to another race and choose the virtual wine run race.
