2024 Race Information
Welcome to the Gamehaven Lakeside Grind. This race is held at the Gamehaven Scout Reservation – a beautiful 225 acre camp and the Gamehaven Sports and Activities Park – Rochester’s newest 460 acre regional park with a 42 acre lake. Gamehaven has been a popular site for Minnesota High School races the past 10 years. Trails are built and maintained by volunteer members of the Rochester Active Sports Club. We are excited to include several new trails in the courses this year!
Note: The swimming pool restrooms near the start/finish will be open this year with changing areas, toilets, and sinks.
Race Course Description/Maps
*Courses are subject to change based on trail conditions and discretion of the race director and property owner.
Location / Parking / Infield
Address Link - 5015 Simpson Rd SE, Rochester, MN 55904
The pool restrooms/change areas will be open this year for use.
Exact Start and Finish Lines TBD. All racers will cross the timing pads on each lap and at their finish.
Pre-ride Information
Preride is marked with signage and some race tape where allowed. Trails are in excellent condition and weather forecast only predicts very minor moisture for this week that should not impact trails.
Series has requested the kids comp course be the same as the citizen course. I will get the signage fixed asap. But in the meanwhile, kids should follow citizen signage.
Trail conditions are posted on the trailbot app.
Trails maps are available on trailforks app.
