Tips & Advice
- Arrive early to enjoy the pre-race festivities and secure good parking, especially if you plan to participate in the earlier 10K or 5K runner start.
- Check the weather forecast and dress in layers, as early morning temperatures can be cool, but you'll warm up quickly during the run or walk.
- If bringing younger children, consider the 5K walk option to ensure they can comfortably complete the course and enjoy the experience.
- Review the course map online before the event to familiarize yourself with the route and any potential inclines or turns.
- Take advantage of early bird registration to secure your spot and potentially save on the registration fee.
