Location, timing and services
The course runs on the paved Glacial Drumlin Trail and finishes at Wales Community Park, 500 S Brandybrook Rd, Wales, WI 53183. Timing is chip-based and managed by Silver Circle Sports Events. The timing chip is located on the race bib; participants are asked to pin the bib to the front outer layer of clothing, keep it visible, and avoid folding the bib.
All finishers receive a finisher pickle and a custom finisher woodle. Overall male and female winners receive custom awards. Age-group awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in 5-year groups starting at 0-14. Two hidden pickles are placed on the course; returning a found pickle to the finish line earns extra swag.
Silver Circle Sports Events owns and manages the race. Registration modifications such as transfers, shirt-size changes, distance changes, and deferrals are available through RunSignUp. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
