Wenzel’s Farm, a provider of hand-crafted, small-batch meat snacks, is again a sponsor of the Twin Cities in Motion running events in 2026. New this year, they are the Official Meat Stick of the Twin Cities Marathon.

Wenzel’s Farm Meat Sticks will be provided for runners after they cross the finish line at these Twin Cities in Motion events:  

• Hot Dash, March 21 
• Get in Gear, April 25 
• PNC Women Run the Cities, May 16 (Nick’s Sticks, a Wenzel’s Farm sister brand will be given out)
• Double Play 5K, July 1
• Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon, Oct. 2–4
• Turkey Day 5K, Nov. 26 

“We couldn’t be happier with our partnership with Twin Cities in Motion,” said Wenzel’s President Mark Vieth. “Their commitment to providing a top-notch experience for the runner is incredible, and as a past participant, and registered runner for this year’s event, it made it an easy choice for us to get behind.”

Runners, their family, friends and running enthusiasts, can come to the Twin Cities Marathon Expo Oct. 2 and 3 to take advantage of race weekend specials on Wenzel’s Farm meat sticks.

“From the start of our partnership with Wenzel’s Farm three years ago, we have come to not just want a Wenzel’s Farm Meat Stick, but crave them,” said Scott Wilson, development director for Twin Cities In Motion. “We couldn’t be more pleased to have them as a continued partner for all of our events, and excited to name them as the Official Meat Stick of the Twin Cities Marathon!”

Wenzel’s Farm offers 13 meat snack stick varieties, four flavors of protein packed PRO Snack Sticks, three flavors of Venison snack sticks, and five varieties of jerky, all of which are crafted in small batches using premium cuts of meat, seasoned and naturally hard wood smoked, a tradition that has been in place since the Wenzel’s Family first started producing quality meat products in 1949 and meat sticks since 1977.
