More Info Coming Soon
Race day presents runners with two options: a 5K on dirt, grass, rocks, roots, and steep terrain, or a 10K with stout climbs on the soft-surfaced Motor Mill trail connecting the Motor Mill historic site to the town of Elkader.
Both routes feature the incredible scenery of the Turkey River valley - wide open spaces, and long vistas of the rugged terrain of northeast Iowa's driftless area.
2025 will be the 9th running of Motor Motor, and while each year faces the vagaries of mid-March weather in Iowa, it has become a staple of the running calendar for runners throughout the upper Midwest region.
Runners take home a swag bag full of local goodies, and a finisher's medal. Additional prizes go to the age group and overall winners.
