The Experience

Get ready to hit the trails at Camp Cornhusker, just outside Humboldt, NE, for an exhilarating trail run! This year we will be having a 1 mile fun run, 5k trail, 10k trail, and a Half marathon trail option. This isn't your average road race—our course winds through the scenic beauty of Camp Cornhusker, featuring rolling hills and wooded trails. Designed to be both challenging and fun! Whether you're a seasoned runner, trail runner or tackling your first off-road race, this race promises an unforgettable experience in the great outdoors with encouragement from fellow runners, multiple aide stations, and  medical volunteers along this newer course.  With your experience you will definitely get some swag like a  commemorative T-shirt, custom medal, and race packet for all participants !

This exciting newer event is open to the public and welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. Whether participants are seasoned trail runners, families looking for a fun outdoor activity, or community members who simply want to enjoy a scenic walk around camp, there’s a place for everyone at Corn to Run. There will be cabins available to rent: W/ Electricity and A/C with 2 sets of twin bunks (4 beds) for $35 along with plenty of area for tent camping for $15 as well with restrooms on site.
