Trick or Treat Candy Run

Includes Candy Run Tshirt Option

Dress up! Run or walk through a grassy area collecting candy along the way. Race starts at dusk, right after the 5k/3k or roughly 650-7pm.

Parents may run/walk with their little ones and help find and collect the eggs. Sort of like an Easter Egg hunt, but for Halloween Candy. Two waves depending on how many sign up, younger children first, then bigger kids. No age limit, and parents can decide which race and if they will go with their child. When their bag is full, head for the finish line for their finishing treat. Distance has been shortened, main focus is fun and running and collecting the eggs.
