About the Event

Continue a great Father's Day tradition or start a new one! Join us for the Run A Muck on Sunday June 21, 2026 at Scholl Farms in Montague Michigan

This unique running event is set on a private organic farm in Montague Michigan just 3 miles from Lake Michigan. Challenge yourself and your family on a real farm-style 5k cross country course. It is totally up to you if your efforts are a hard core run, a relaxing stroll or somewhere in between! This is a real working farm and the course winds through beautiful wooded trails and fields. The terrain is mostly flat but includes water/mud jumps, hay bales, logs, and more.

This event is dog friendly and includes a Dog Division for our canine competitors.
