Distances
- 5K
- 10K
- Half Marathon
Finishers receive an ice-cold popsicle and a custom Popsicle-themed finisher medal. Awards are presented in all three distances to the top three male and top three female finishers in standard five-year age groups, beginning with 10 & Under.
On-course support includes self-serve water stations placed at approximately every 1.5 miles; participants who want to avoid stopping are advised to carry personal hydration. There is a required minimum finish pace of 16 minutes per mile.
Registration is organized into regular, late, and race-day pricing tiers. Participants who register by July 29 (except those who select the No Shirt option) are guaranteed race swag in their selected size; after that date swag is available while supplies last. A virtual race option allows remote participants to submit results and appear in event results.
Event conduct policies require participants and spectators to maintain a positive competitive atmosphere; unsportsmanlike behavior can result in removal from the venue with no refund. All registrations are final with no refunds or transfers. The event runs rain or shine and may be cancelled for extreme weather without refunds. In the event of a federal or state health emergency related to COVID-19 the event will convert to fully virtual and shirts will be shipped to participants.
