Costumes:
Oh come on, you know you want to dress up! We encourage everyone to wear their favorite superhero costume (buy it or make it) but it is certainly not required. Which superhero will you be? When selecting your costume, please be reminded that children of all ages will be participating in this family friendly event (costumes should not be too revealing or scary please).

Costume Contest: NEW FOR 2016!
 Local celebrity judges will be walking around to find their favorite superhero costumes in these categories: Best Boy, Best Girl, Best Man, Best Woman, and Best Group/Family/Team. Winners will be announced at the awards ceremony immediately following the 5k so any children that want to participate should get there well before the fun run heats.

Stroller Policy: 
This is a family-friendly race and strollers are permitted however participants pushing children in strollers must start in the back and stay on the right side of the path at all times. Because the course is out and back and the path is narrow, strollers cannot line up side by side. This is for the safety of all runners.

Superhero Swag: 
All superheroes in the 5k race will receive a custom designed t-shirt (register by October 15 to guarantee your shirt) and a swag bag at packet pickup as well as a sweat towel when you cross the finish line. Our little superheroes running the children's fun run will receive a cape, superhero swag bag, finisher's medal, and snack bag. We will have limited quantities of t-shirts and capes available on race day for those who register after October 15.
