Event summary

Join us for the Spooky Sprint 5K on Saturday, October 28, 2023, in the picturesque Pike Road, Montgomery! This exciting fundraising event, organized by the Pike Road Show Choir, promises a unique blend of fitness and fun, as participants can run, walk, or even dance their way through a spooktacular course. Covering a distance of 3.1 miles, the race kicks off at 8 AM, with an exhilarating option to navigate a zombie-infested route for those daring enough to test their speed and endurance against “the walking dead.”

As a first-year event, the Spooky Sprint has already sold out with 200 registered participants, but don’t worry—enthusiastic runners can still join in on the fun without a race bib or t-shirt! There will be plenty of opportunities for creativity, with costume contests in various categories, including best pet, superhero, and original costume. Medals will be awarded to top finishers across multiple age groups, making this a fantastic day for family fun, fitness, and community support. The awards ceremony will take place at 9 AM, so come prepared for an unforgettable day of thrills and chills!
