Since the washout along the Little Traverse Wheelway in 2020, the Top of Michigan Festival of Races looks a little different, with changed course routes implemented in 2021 – a new start line, out and back routes, and no marathon distance. We’ll continue to host a race, with modified routes while the LTW washout exists.
