Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged and absolutely part of the fun.

We'll have plenty of opportunities to show off your costume, take pictures, and celebrate the most creative runners, walkers, and families on the course.

🎃 FAMILY FRIENDLY. COMMUNITY FOCUSED. HALLOWEEN OBSESSED.
This event is designed for EVERYONE.

Bring the kids.

Bring your parents.

Bring your friends.

Bring your running group.

Bring your coworkers.

Bring the neighbor who hasn't run since 2017.
