This event has been created and hosted by the Lino Lakes Jaycees. A unique event, participants run (or walk) a mile while eating chili dogs (4 max.). Each chili dog consumed will be good for one minute off their finishing time. Each runner will be provided with a high school athlete to “caddie” the chili dogs and water.
This event will take place on Saturday, August 18th along the parade route and starts at 10:45am. Pre-registration is required and space is limited. Click on the link below.
