Wurst Kilometer

route

About

Get ready for the most daring and delicious blend of endurance and indulgence you've ever experienced – The Wurst Kilometer! Born from a spark of inspiration at a Detroit beer garden, this is no ordinary race. It's a single kilometer where you'll run, walk, or crawl while conquering a bratwurst and a mliko. It's quirky, it's fun, and it's for a cause, with all proceeds after costs supporting the amazing Rebel Dogs Detroit.
This is your chance to do something completely out of the box (and maybe out of your comfort zone) this August. And yes, you'll want the bragging rights for finishing the wurst race in town. Plus, your registration gifts you a cool race day tank and a sticker to commemorate your triumph over the wurst. So, are you in or what?
