The start of the 2019 Loop de Loop Half-Marathon
 
To all 2019 Loop de Loop Participants:
 
On behalf of the Decorah Rotary Loop de Loop team, thank you for participating in this year’s 8th annual event! If you were a visitor to town, we hope you enjoyed your time in Decorah. 
 
Fortunately the adverse weather held off and it turned out to be a nice morning for a run or walk.  We apologize for having to alter the Half-Marathon and 10K routes at the last minute.  The river continued to rise late Friday night beyond what we anticipated, which led to multiple sections of the trail under water and impassable. We hope you found the revised routes equally fulfilling and fun.  
 
If you were not able to attend the event, we do plan to mail your t-shirt to the address you provided at registration.  If you do not want your shirt mailed simply let us know.  
 
Every year the Decorah Rotary Club uses a portion of the proceeds of the race to benefit the Trout Run Trail system in some way. Additional proceeds are used for local and international Rotary programs and activities such as scholarships to graduating high school seniors, grants to fund community needs, and international goodwill projects. Thank you for supporting these efforts.
 
The 2019 complete race results and finisher's videos may be found on this link:  https://jmsresults.com/results/2019/loop19.html  
 
A Loop de Loop Participant’s Survey may be found HERE. Please take a moment to let us know what you thought about the race and your time in Decorah.  Your feedback is very important to us as we look ahead to 2020.
 
Thank you very much for supporting Loop de Loop and the Decorah Rotary Club!
