ITC Training Groups

Chippewa Six Pack
Regular runs on Tuesday at 5:30 AM and Thursday at 5:15 AM from the parking lot at McDonnell High School in Chippewa Falls. There is always a weekend run from some coffee shop somewhere in Chippewa Falls, usually between 10 and 20 miles. Paces vary. Annual runs include the December Night Raid on the Christmas Village followed by a Christmas Party, and the Dunkin' in Duncan Creek (long, early morning run around the Fourth of July followed by beer and breakfast sitting in Duncan Creek). The famous "Red Dress Run" is reserved for less frequent, special occasions.
