Hello runners, hope you’re excited for the 2024 Minnesota Voyageur 50 Mile! We are and cannot wait to see you all this weekend! Unfortunately the Carlton Trail in Jay Cooke remains closed and we must use an alternate route. This updated course is a straight out and back of about 50.17 miles. Here is a link to the course we will be using.

Here is a link to the updated aid station information.

Keep in mind there will be no aid station at the end by the main Jay Cooke parking lot. You will not go down to the swinging bridge. The Forbay Dam will be your first and last aid station. This station is crew accessible but please keep it to minimal crew and remind them to be respectful of the open road.

The course changes are both closer to Carlton. Instead of going straight through the CCC you will run part of the White Pine Trail. This should look familiar if you ran the Curnow Marathon a couple weeks ago. Between Forbay and Peterson’s you will use the Upper Triangle Trail. This is similar to the Curnow Marathon but bypasses the Lower Triangle Trail.

Registration for the 2024 Voyageur 50 Mile is now open on UltraSignup! The race will be held on July 27. Remember that you can receive a discounted entry by volunteering for the Curnow Trail Marathon.

Happy training, we look forward to seeing you all this July!

Congratulations to our overall winners:

• Justin Stewart – M: 6:38:34 A new course record!!
• Jill Wojta – F: 8:14:40
