The Friday night 5K opens the Double Barrel Challenge, which pairs the evening 5K with a Saturday distance such as the 10K, half marathon, or marathon. Race registration includes a custom finisher medal for most events; the Kids Dash receives event goodies but not a medal or shirt. Registered runners receive a long sleeved shirt when registration is completed in time to guarantee sizing. Post race provisions noted by the organizer include snacks, a post race meal, and beer for participants aged 21 and older, with craft breweries pouring on Saturday and beer sale proceeds directed to a charity partner. Double Barrel participants receive two finisher medals plus additional recognition for completing the challenge. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
