Yes packets can be picked up at the race from 10:00 P.M. till 15 minutes before race time.

Can a friend pickup my packet for me?
Yes this is done on an honor system.

Can a friend or a family member run with me if they did not enter the race?
No. This is called banditing a race and could get you disqualified. Bandits cause many problems with the timing and put undo pressure on the aid station volunteers.

What if I cannot make it to the race? Can I get a refund?
We are sorry but we do not give refunds. Participants unable to participate may pick up their runner packet. Or they may have someone else pick up their packet for them.

What is the age limit for the races?
There is no age limit to either the 5K or One Mile Fun Run. However, it is recommended that young children be supervised at all times as it will be dark and very crowded.

Do I need a timing chip?
No! This race is electronically timed but not by chip. You will have a tear off tag on the bottom of your race number. There will be someone at the end of the finish line to help you tear this off. Do not tear off the tear tag until you cross the finish line.

What happens if I leave my race number at home?
All participants in both races must have a race number. If you forget or lose your race number, you must go to the race registration tables to get new number issued.

Where do I wear my race number?
Your race number must be visible on the FRONT of your body. If you think you may shed a shirt or a jacket during the race, we recommend that you safety pin your number to the front of your shorts/sweats/tights/costume.

Will sports drink be available at the hydration stations?
No. Only water, champagne, and sparkling cider will be offered at the water stop near the 2.5 kilometer mark.

Will Energy Gel be provided on the course?
No. You must bring your own.

What is the course time limit?
The course will remain open till the last walker comes through. However if you cannot walk 3.1 miles in one hour and 15 minutes, we suggest you enter the one mile Fun Run instead. .

Are strollers allowed in the races?
Strollers are only allowed in the Fun Run and they must start towards the back of the race pack.

What type of costumes are allowed?
Any costume that will allow you and the entrants around you to run safely is permitted. Many children attend this event so costumes should be PG or better.
