Pre-race

  • The venue and expo will open at 8:00a
  • If you'd like to participate in the Halloween costume contest, make sure to get your picture taken at the banner on the finish aid tent by 9:30a (winners will be announced and prizes handed out during the awards ceremony)
  • We do have a gear check in the venue, next to meal. And we will collect items dropped on the course to return to the gear check (see more details below)
  • Our expo partners will be available for you pre-race and post-race

Race starts

  • Bibs must be on your front, on your outer-most layer and visible to our course marshals and photographers
  • Important: because we have so many athletes participating in Kooky-Spooky, we will have four corrals at the start line, based on your expected pace. Within the corral, those that are on the faster end should be towards the front of the corral, those slower in the back of the corral. Please line up in the corral based on your expected pace. If you aren't in the correct corral at the start, you might end up having to weave through or move out of the way of other athletes.
  • Note that we will be using chip timing, so even if someone never passes you on the course, they may have a faster time
  • Start times. If you are late, you will need to downgrade to a distance that hasn't started yet or will not be allowed to run on course with a bib as part of the event (this is for your safety on course). If you start with any other distance than your registered distance, you will be disqualified as we will not be able to track you or be ready for you on the course (this if for your safety):
    • Half marathon: start at 9:00a and by 9:05a
    • 10K: start at 9:20a and by 9:25a
    • 5K: start at 9:45a and by 9:50a

Course safety

  • Ensure your bib is always visible and on your front, this is for your on-course safety and also for identifying photographs of you on course
  • Make sure you are familiar with your course and aid stations from our course details page. We have water, Gatorade, and Superganix CBD Relief Balm at your aid station
  • Please watch your step in the parking lot just after you start and just before the finish line… there's some rough pavement blocked off with cones as you make your way down the hill
  • Go to our course details page to view your course directions and download the course file
  • We have bright green course signs with blue arrows, course markings on the ground with bright green tape, and course volunteers at key locations to help guide you
  • We have orange discs to block where you shouldn't go. Don't go through, around, over, or past any orange disc, or you will be off-course
  • It is important if you choose to shorten your distance during the event, notify course volunteers as soon as possible and the timer as soon as you cross the finish line
  • You can drop items at any aid station, we will attempt to get your items back to the venue as soon as possible and they will be at the Gear Check tent. If you cannot wait for your item, email after the event and we can mail your gear (with paid shipping) or hold it until your next event. Best practice: put your name in your gear
  • Dogs are loved as running partners! We have dog bowls at the aid stations and the finish line, and dog treats at the meal tent. Make sure to use short leashes while on course. Be aware that the course is generally concrete, but the first and last 1/4 mi is asphalt parking lot
