The event program includes timed and untimed 5K divisions and youth categories for ages 13 and under, a “Sleep In Special” option that includes breakfast, a block party and a race shirt, a team-captain registration option for charity teams, and a shirt-only option. Packet pick-up is hosted in the lobby of the MidPointe Library at 9363 Centre Pointe Drive on the days immediately before the race and on race day. The course is described as a modified loop route around Union Centre Boulevard that keeps participants close to the block party finish area. The first 2,000 5K finishers will receive a medal; participants in the Leprechaun Lap receive a chocolate medal. Post-race activities include a community block party with food, sponsor booths and adult beverage service for those 21 and over with proper ID.
