Record crowd takes to the trails at Crossroads
The biggest field in the history of the Crossroads Trail Run got to see firsthand what their dollars and feet will support. Close to 400 runners took to the trails on Saturday to complete 2K, 5K, and 10K courses. The record crowd coincided with the 15th anniversary of the race, which goes to benefit the programming at Crossroads at Big Creek Learning Center and Nature Preserves. One of those programs will take place this Thursday when landowners and community members are invited to join professionals from various organizations to a lecture series to discuss restoration practices and resources. The June program will be presented by Mike Grimm, who is recently retired from The Nature Conservancy. Eduardo Neri of Sturgeon Bay kept the 10K title in Door County with a time of 39:37. Kyle Keltner of Springfield, Missouri (16:28, 5K), and Owen Thompson of Pewaukee, Wisconsin (8:56, 2K) also won their respective races.
