Beneficiary
If there are any proceeds from the race, they will be donated to the Browntown Community Center Association. (Our race is not a money-making venture or a fundraiser.)

The fine print
This is a small, low-key event without many volunteers or resources. The course will be open to vehicular traffic, so participants will need to pay extra attention. For safety/insurance reasons, participants may not run the race with personal listening devices (i.e. headphones, iPods, etc.), baby joggers/strollers, or dogs; violators will be disqualified. On-site medical assistance will not be available. Entry fees are non-refundable; entries are non-transferable.

Directions to the race can be found on our driving directions page!
