About The Event

The 13th Annual Capital Striders Loop the Lake run marks the unofficial start of the racing season and is a must-do event for runners of all skill levels.

The flat and fast 8K race will start at 8:00am, making 2+ laps around Gray's Lake at Gray's Lake Park in Des Moines.

Following the 8K, the Little Lakers race, a race for kids ages 0 - 10 will be held at approximately 9:30am.
Unfortunately, due to the number of participants and the narrow trail, we are no longer able to accommodate walkers in the event.

The 8K course is run on a twelve foot wide (in most sections), relatively flat asphalt trail. This race completes two plus loops around the lake.
