About the Monster Mash 5K Fun Run
The race starts and finishes at a high school football field, and costumes are part of the deal. This is a Halloween morning event, so expect jack-o-lanterns, capes, and at least one person running in full monster gear. The course is a standard road distance, flat enough to handle in whatever you decided to wear.
Packet pickup happens at the football field before the start, so there is no separate trip the day before. Parking at a high school typically means a lot nearby, and the start-area setup keeps everything in one place.
