Organiser's description

The 5K starts at 9 am, followed by the Grinch Chaser, our Kids 1-Mile Fun Run at 10 am, then, cool off with a dip in the bottom pond for our first annual Polar Plunge at 10:30 am. Guaranteed more excitement than a one-year membership to the Jelly of the Month Club. Runners will receive overall and 5-year age group awards for the top finishers.

The Polar Plunge is included with all 5K and Grinch Chaser signups. If you would like to participate in the Polar Plunge only, that is fine too! All participants receive the commemorative event shirt!

Dont forget a towel and a change of clothes!

Cousin Eddy's 5K is also serving as the target race for the Ullman Foundation's Cancer to 5K program. This program takes cancer survivors on a journey from remission to their first 5K!

Race packet pick-up is Friday, December 8th from 3 to 6, adjacent to the Outfitter.
