Spring Runners’ Village

Runners’ Village

Spring 2021 Note: Due to on-going COVID concerns, there will be no Runners’ Village for the May 2, 2021 race.

One of the most exciting features of the Prairie Fire Race Series is the runners’ village, which is full of everything runners need before and after the race! The Spring Runners’ Village will be held at 455 S. Wichita, Wichita, KS 67202.

It offers a bag check for personal items, medical tents, free massages, runners food tent, runners information tent, free coffee, and free beer. There’s also water, Gatorade, and fruit as you cross the finish line. In addition to these amenities, there’s also live music on stage for your entertainment.

Another unique part of the Prairie Fire Race Series is our broadcasters at the finish line giving live updates of runners coming into the finish. The live feed can be heard a half mile out for an added rush of adrenaline for runners to finish strong!

Hydration Stations & Restrooms

The Prairie Fire Marathon is proud to serve Gatorade sports drinks at all hydration stations. Fully filtered water is provided by Culligan. GU hydration will also be available in certain locations. Minor emergency supplies (i.e. Band-Aids, Vaseline, ice) will also be available at each station.
