PRO TIPS:
1) No ID = No Beer, please bring it no matter your age!

3) Dress for the weather, we are a rain or shine event.
4) Arrive Earlier than you think. Expect delays as you arrive to park – especially if you’re in the 5K or 1 Mile.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
WEATHER POLICY? We are a rain or shine event. Look at the forecast the night before to dress appropriately.
IS THE EVENT DOG FRIENDLY? We love our four-legged friends but due to this being a certified and sanctioned event with USATF, we are not allowed to have dogs on course unless its a pre-approved service animal and registered with USATF.
WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY SHIRT? When you check in and receive your bib prior to the race.
WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY MEDAL? Immediately after you finish – in the finish line chute. Challenge runners – see below.
CHALLENGE RUNNERS – You will receive all of your medals together at the end of the race. So as you complete the 10K & 5K, you will not be receiving a medal, they will all be handed to you after you complete the 1 Mile. You MUST start with each official start time – no early or late starts allowed. If you don’t finish the 10K in time to start the 5K, you will be allowed to complete it “virtually” another day and you will still receive all 4 medals race day.
WHERE IS THE AFTER PARTY & WHAT’S INCLUDED? We’ve got beer and BBQ for you to enjoy after you finish your race right behind the finish line. Your bib will have a ticket for beer and BBQ so come hang out with us after the race!
ARE STROLLERS ALLOWED? Yes, strollers are allowed but will need to start at the back of the corral to avoid any kind of tripping in the crowd at the start – you will still be included in age group awards though and these are done by “Chip Time” – the net time from when you cross the start line to the time you finish.
AWARDS: We will host award ceremonies throughout the day for the 10K & 5K. There are age group awards every 5 years and trophies for the overall and masters (over 40) winners! This will be behind the finish line in the after party area.
COURSE MAPS: Yes, we have a printable/zoomable PDF of the maps online. CLICK HERE to view and download it.
ARE THE COURSE CERTIFIED? Yes, both the 5K & 10K are USATF certified and sanctioned.
5K Certification
10K Certification
CAN I START LATE? No late starts are allowed due to logistics and safety on the roads.
ARE THERE WATERSTOPS? Yes, we have 1 water stop on the 5K and 2 on the 10K – both will have volunteers handing out water and Gatorade.
VIRTUAL PARTICIPANTS: We will ship out all of your packets (Shirt, medal(s) & bib) within 2 weeks following the race. You do NOT need to submit or send in proof of completion, this is all done on the honor system. You can complete your virtual race anytime before or after the actual race anywhere you’d like. Again – no need to notify us or send it your strava/garmin or any kind of proof.
