Organiser's Description
Lace up your running shoes and grab your spoons, the Brain Freezer 5K is back!!

This is the second year we've done this route, and it was a huge success last year! The race will follow the bike path along beautiful Lake Champlain. It will run between North Beach and Waterfront Park with an ice cream eating pit stop in Water Works Park.
Prizes will be given out for best costume and best team costumes, so have fun with it!
