Haunted Halloween Hustle, Goshen, Indiana
The Haunted Halloween Hustle is based at Abshire Park Pavilion, 1302 East Lincoln Avenue, Goshen, Indiana. Races use the Pumpkinvine trail, a largely tree lined route, and all courses are out and back so turn directions are straightforward.
Distances offered:
- Monster Mile
- Frightening 5K run or walk
- Terrible 10K run
- Haunted Half Marathon
The trail is protected from vehicle traffic for most of the route; police and volunteers will staff a few cross roads. There are several porta potties along the courses. There is no parking for participants at Abshire Park on race day; a small lot will be used for supplies and volunteers and traffic will be directed to nearby lots. Participants should expect to park off site and walk to the start, allowing extra time for that.
All participants receive a finisher medal. The 5K, 10K and half marathon have overall top three male and female awards and age group awards; overall Grand Masters awards are added for each distance. The Monster Mile is not timed but receives a finisher medal. Costume awards are given in eight categories including cutest, duo or group, most creative, homemade, spooky, funny, storybook and superhero.
Packet pickup is available at an off site location the week before the event and at Abshire Park in the days immediately before the race and on race day. The event benefits the Elkhart County Down Syndrome Support Group. Food and refreshments will be available at the finish area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
