Haunted Halloween Hustle

👻 Welcome to the Haunted Halloween Hustle!

Come join us for the Haunted Halloween Hustle! We have a distance for everyone!

• Monster Mile
• Frightening 5K (run or walk)
• Terrible 10K run
• Haunted Half Marathon

🌳 Course Information

The race is based out of the lovely Abshire Park in Goshen, Indiana. The courses are all on the fantastic, scenic Pumpkinvine trail largely ensconced by old trees. All distances are out and back so there is absolutely no way to miss a turn, get lost or lose your mates! Just get into your zone, forget about your cares and count down the miles!

🛡️ Safety Measures

You will always have people around you to encourage you and get you to the finish line! The path is completely protected from traffic, except at a few cross roads where we will have police and volunteers to keep you safe. There are also several porta potties along the way, which is always nice- especially on the longer distances.

🌟 Awards and Recognition

All participants get a custom finisher medal with the new logo, with your distance on the lanyard. Overall Top Three MF and Age group awards in the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon. The Mile is not timed, but you will get a custom finisher medal.

🎭 Costume Contest

We encourage everyone to dress up - and participate in the costume contest! We will have special awards in 10 categories (it’s way too difficult to pick The Best) including best homemade, best superhero, and more. You will sign up when you get there (to make sure we get a photo and you won’t be missed) and when you get back from your run, you can see if you won!

🚀 New Features in 2025

• Shirts: Optional and an additional cost of $15. We do order extra shirts, but you need to sign up by October 10 to guarantee your size and availability.
• Dawn Patrol: For those wanting more time to complete the distance, we are offering "Dawn Patrol" which will begin at 8:00 am. You just need to indicate that during signup or at the latest when you check in so our timer is prepared. All Dawn Patrol participants will all start together, regardless of distance in a group start at 8:00 am. You must be checked in by 7:45 am on race day in order to start early.
• Food Truck: Onsite!

☕ Refreshments

Ben's Pretzels will have the Pretzel wagon there, and we’ll have hot cocoa, coffee, cookies and so much more will be waiting for you at the finish line. We do have great chow at the finish!

❤️ FUNdraiser

This race benefits the Elkhart County Down Syndrome Support Group and 2025 is super exciting because we will be announcing some very big plans for the group at the race!

📣 Volunteer Opportunities

Not a runner? We always need active spectators to cheer on the runners, hand out water, watch for traffic, etc. Please let us know if your support group is available to help out!
