The post-race gathering at the in-person event features hot soup, hot Wassail wine, hot coffee and hot chocolate, bagpipes, and Irish Wolfhounds. The route and post-race provisions are described as taking place within Druid Hill Park and the event includes both on-site and remote participation options.
