Purpose: The race will immediately start at 11 am so that all runners will have time to pass the turn-around point quick enough so that the race does not hold up the parade.
🏁 Race
Event: This race is the first event of the season and is the oldest road race in the Scranton Area.
Course: This is a 2 mile course, relatively flat with some gently rolling hills.
Route: The course will be run entirely on the parade route (see parade route map). It will be an out and back course.
Notice: Please stay to the right at all times so you don't interfere with the other runners.
📝 Registration
When: Registration on the day of the race will be from 9am to 10:30am at the Lackawanna College Student Union.
Closure: Registration will end promptly so that runners can have time to get to the starting line (corner of Vine and N Washington).
Pre-registration: Runners who pre-registered will pick up their race numbers and t-shirts here.
Shirts: T-shirts are provided by our sponsors and will be given to the first 100 registered runners.
🏆 Finish
Ceremony: The award ceremony will be held at the Lackawanna College Student Union as soon as the race is completed.
Timing: This is expected to be no later than 12:00pm, so that you can enjoy the parade.
