Mardi Gras 5K Prediction Run
The event is a prediction run held in Mobile, Alabama on February 7, 2027. The listed race distance is 3 miles and official chip timing will be used; the computer time is the official time for results.
A prediction run awards the participant who best predicts their own finish time rather than the fastest runner. To be eligible for the prediction prize each participant must enter a predicted finish time on their application. The use of watches or other timing devices is considered an unfair advantage for the prediction category and may result in disqualification from that prize.
Packet pickup is available at Fleet Feet Mobile, located at 3972 Airport Blvd, on February 1 through February 6 and also on race day before the start. Race location is 199 S Broad St, Mobile, AL. Morning-of registration is available on the day of the event.
Registration details in the source include an opening and closing window and a registration fee of $25. The event offers a published refund schedule: 75% refund up to 60 days before the event, 50% up to 30 days before the event, and no refunds within 30 days of the event. A free bib transfer to another participant is allowed up to 10 days before the event.
Awards listed include prizes for the closest predicted time, top male and female fastest times, costume awards, most referrals, most spirited, and a Best Joe Cain Costume category. Some awards list free shoes from Fleet Feet up to $160. The event notes a pre-race atmosphere with music and dance and that employer groups of 15 or more registrations are accepted.
