What’s better than running by yourself? Running with a bunch of crazy fun people, that’s what!
You will pass the start/finish/aid station area multiple times throughout the race. This means you’re welcome to leave a drop bag to access your own personal goodies and you can shed layers as you warm up. This is also a good place to reapply sunscreen, address any potential issues such as blisters, etc.
The course is a crushed gravel, almost entirely flat, one mile loop in Boling Park. But wait! Running in one mile laps?! Won’t that be…boring? Only if YOU are boring! (Are you boring? Stop that! Stop it right now!) Not only do laps keep all of our runners and walkers together, they also help us keep an eye on you, and keep you close to all the things we’re bringing to attempt to keep you COOL.
WALKERS ARE WELCOME. Yes, you can change distances in the middle of the race. Having a great day? Go further and just pay the difference. Not feeling great? Stop before you hurt yourself and you’ll still get credit for the mileage you covered.
Your registration fee includes entry into the race distance of your choosing, race swag, and finisher medal for all distances, along with our typical crazy stocked aid station with energy gels, drinks, and tons of food. As is typical for Awesomesauce races, shirts are NOT part of the swag package. Some of you like getting a race shirt, so we do offer them up – along with hoodies, tank tops, and other fun stuff – for an additional fee. Shirt pre-orders will close one month prior to race day, so if you KNOW you’ll want one, please order before then, because we don’t have a crystal ball that will tell us that you had your heart set on a size small tank top but had no intention of registering until three days before the race.
The race is super low-key and non-competitive; you’re racing you vs. you. We do post results though, so these races qualify for all the popular running clubs.
