The 4 mile course travels through the West Hill neighborhoods of Akron, featuring historic brick roads and a route through the Glendale Cemetery.

Participants receive a commemorative gift, a race t-shirt, and a goodie bag. The event includes a post-race festival featuring live music, refreshments, and an onsite BBQ meal. For participants aged 21 and over, a beer ticket is included. An awards ceremony recognizes overall winners, age group winners, fundraising champions, and cancer fighters.
