About the Run For Your Life 5k
This is a Halloween costume race that raises money for a local free health clinic. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome, and prizes go to the fastest finishers as well as the most creative costumes. A short kids' run for younger children runs alongside the main event, with fall activity stations including donut and cider, pumpkin decorating, and a scavenger hunt.
Packet pickup is available the evening before at the clinic, with race-morning pickup as well. The start area doubles as a costume parade staging ground, so arrive with some extra time if you went all out on the outfit.
