RunB4Wine 5K

Join us for the annual RunB4Wine 5K, a heartwarming family-friendly run through Round Lake Vineyards & Winery on September 26, 2027. This scenic route takes runners along picturesque paved paths and gravel trails winding through vineyards and alongside serene Round Lake.
Participants of all ages are welcome to jog or walk at their own pace, enjoying the lush greenery and stunning lake views as they go. The event commemorates baby Benjamin Bruce, who fought bravely against a rare enterovirus that led to liver failure before his passing. All proceeds from this race benefit the Big Brave Benjamin Bruce PICU fund, which supports families of chronically ill children at the University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital.
After crossing the finish line, runners and their loved ones are invited to relax on the vineyard grounds or by Round Lake’s tranquil shores while enjoying a complimentary glass of award-winning wine for those 21 years old and above. The winery also offers a delicious menu featuring local fare and an array of wines available for purchase.
Check-in begins at 10:00 am, with the race starting promptly at 11:00 am. A lakeside worship sunrise service is scheduled for 9:30 am, providing a reflective start to your day before the run.
Medals will be awarded to both male and female overall winners in various age categories. Be sure to pick up some RunB4Wine merchandise while you're there.
