Race details
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- 5K Trail Run
- 10K Trail Run
The 1 Mile Fun Run takes place around the festival area. The 5K course is described as almost entirely off-road, following the Greenbelt Trail, crossing the Elm Fork Bridge, and entering equestrian trails. The 10K includes sections that are more technical than the usual Greenbelt surface. Dogs on a leash are allowed; strollers are not permitted because much of the course is unpaved. A pre-race packet pick-up is available the day before the event at the race site. All 5K and 10K participants receive a swag bag, event t-shirt, finisher medal, and finish-line refreshments. Prizes are offered for the top three overall male and female finishers and for top three male and female finishers in these age groups: 14 & under; 15-24; 25-34; 35-44; 45-54; 55-64; 65 & over.
