Common Questions:

What is included in the cost? – T-shirt, bib, and post-race goodies

Can I walk the course? – YES! We welcome all walkers, runners, and everyone in the middle

Are strollers welcome? – Yes, however, the Luce Line Trail can be quite bumpy, and pavement is limited, so we request to keep it to single wide strollers only

Are headphones allowed? – Yes, all headphones or listening devices are allowed. We ask no speakers due to the respect for other participants

What if my kid (4-13) wants to run the 5K and the Kids 1/2? – There is an option during registration to select both races; however, the Kids’ race is set to start at 9:30, so depending on how fast their 5k time is, they might be late to the start

Is there a set end time? – We do ask that all participants plan to be done with the run/walk by 10:30 am, if you are still on course, you may finish, but the time may not be recorded

Is the run/walk timed? – The race will be timed, but no record will be kept. However, some prizes will be given.

What if there is bad weather? – If there is rain, depending on how bad it is, it may not be safe to host the event, but we will still host it. If the weather is too bad to run, the rain date would be Sunday, June 21st.
