2025 Pyramid City Run held on Saturday Sept. 13th to benefit Mind Over Mountains -UW Initiative to End Alzheimer's

The Pyramid City Run 5K fun run was held on Saturday, September 13th, 2025 with the start and finish in Commons Park.

This year we focused our action on Alzheimer's Research and are proud to help support The UW Initiative to End Alzheimer's team Minds over Mountains led by Dr Bill Stork.

Dr. Bill Stork's journey to help find a cure for Alzheimer's began when a family member was affected. It continued after being introduced to the UW Initiative to End Alzheimer's and learning that "vigorous physical and mental activity are life habits that will contribute to painting mental acuity, delaying the onset of dementia and aging well." 100% of the proceeds (after expenses) will be donated to Minds over Mountains Team to help support the UW Initiative to End Alzheimers.

When we say FUN RUN...we mean it! Look at how much fun the participants had at the run this year!

Thank you to all the Lake Mills Rotary Club Night Group for organizing the run, all the participants, numerous volunteers, and generous sponsors!

❤️ Why This Event?

Welcome to the Pyramid City Run 5k run/walk organized by the Lake Mills Rotary Club. Each year this event raises money for notable charities and organizations in Jefferson County.

The Pyramid City Run is a run/walk, not a race, so we will not have an official timer. There will be an unofficial race clock for a general completion time, and you are encouraged to keep your own time as well. Every participant receives a Pyramid City Run shirt (if registered within one month of the run) and goodie bag, and there will be a bunch of great vendors there supporting the cause.
