Organiser's Description

Inaugural SeaWorld's Howl-O-Sprint 5K Run:   The Premier Halloween Night in America!
As nightfall approaches, terror and dread fill the air.   Embark on a one-of-a-kind nighttime terror run experience through SeaWorld Orlando's Howl-O-Sprint on Friday the 13th (September 13, 2024). 
Dash through the racecourse while surrounded by relentless characters whispering curses and promises of spine-tingling fear. Feel the adrenaline surge as you speed past roller coasters haunted by unspeakable terrors. Navigate through the dark depths of SeaWorld Orlando where eerie landscapes and harrowing scare zones await. Sprint toward the finish line…if you dare. 
Remember, this isn’t your typical 5K—it’s a heart-pounding sprint through the supernatural. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just trying to outrun the shadows, the Howl-O-Sprint 5K promises thrills, chills, and a finish line you won’t forget.
And don’t forget, join us at the Howl-O-Sprint post-race celebration exclusive to our brave racers and a limited number of spectators until 2AM.
