About the Scrapple Scramble 5K
The Scrapple Scramble is a Newark race put on by Fusion Racing, built around a local breakfast tradition that not many other races can claim as their theme. The course is not described in detail, but the post-race spread leans into the scrapple angle, and there is music at the finish.
Packet pickup happens race morning at Canal Little League, wrapping up just before the start. That same spot serves as the launch point, so there is no need to be anywhere else beforehand.
