Beast 3-Race Challenge
- You will run each of the 3 races separately. You will start 1-mile and finish it. Then have a break until the 5k starts. You will start the 5k and finish it. You have another break until the 10k starts. Then you start the 10k and finish it.
- Each race will start on time. You will have a limited amount of time to finish each individual race before the next race starts. You will have the following times to complete each race: 1-mile = 20 minutes; 5k = 40 minutes & 10k = 90 minutes. Should you not finish in the allotted time you may continue racing, but your time will not be adjusted. This means that if your 5k takes longer than 40 minutes, that is okay. You finish the 5k, and start the 10k immediately. But your 10k time will have started with everyone else, and the timers will not be able to adjust that time. You must also finish the 10k in the allotted time regardless of when you start. We ask that you try to finish all 3 races (1-mile, 5k & 10k) inside the designated times.
- Athletes may use the same bib and timing chip for each race. You DO NOT need to change bibs or chips. This is a change from 2019, so please note you keep and use the same bib and timing chip for all 3 races.
- Racers will get a Beast Finisher Medal (medals may be limited so check the specific event site for more details) and a race medal for the specific event.
Racing Attire, Costumes, and Contest
Halloween is a time to express yourself, and we think running in costume is more fun. So, we encourage you to wear silly, super, spooky, sophisticated, satirical, stealthy, and even simple costumes. This is a family event, so please keep your costumes in good taste. Costumes are not required, but you might just get more candy! Plus our costume contest will award those costumes with the most creativity.
In-Race Photos & Photo Booth
We will have a photographer out on course to take your pictures while you race. Then after your race you can pose with your friends, family and team at our FREE photo booth. We will post all pictures on Facebook after the race for you to like, tag and share!
