About this race
No Tricks or Treats, Just Quick Feet: The Syracuse Track Club Presents the Spookiest Run in Town!
Lace up your running shriek-ers— the Syracuse Track Club is back to raise your spirits with our Annual Halloween Run! Haunt the trail around Green and Round Lake at Green Lakes State Park for a ghost of a good time. Run for your life dressed in your best costumes. Wildly encouraged for both runners and volunteers. Fangs out, because we’re crowning our overall top finishers and awarding prizes for the best costumes!
Schedule of Events:
- 9:00 AM – Kids Fun Run: A short ¼ to ½-mile dash where little monsters gather ghoul-icious goodie bags at the finish line!
- 9:15 AM (Post-Kids Run) – Trunk-or-Treat: Ghouls just wanna have fun! Stick around the parking lot for a safe, organized trick-or-treating hosted by our spooktacular racing community (included with kids' entry). Want to decorate a trunk and hand out candy? Sign up on our volunteer page—it’s a grave opportunity!
- 10:00 AM – 5K Trail Run: Step onto the path of terror! Friendly volunteers will be posted to ensure you stay on the right trail and don't end up lost in the woods forever.
Swag & Perks:
- Scenic Course: A scenic, witch-approved trail-style 5K course.
- Race Shirt: A cozy long-sleeve race shirt (so you don't get chilled to the bone).
- Candy: Mountainous piles of CANDY!
- Prizes: Gift cards for the overall fastest male and female creatures.
