See how fast your ghoulish spirit is; a chip timing system will be used for all running participants! Or feel the cool October breeze while casually haunting the pumpkin lined course. All runners and walkers will be asked to wear numbers. For your safety and the safety of others, headphones and pets will not be allowed.
Follow the pumpkins!
Whichever path you choose, all participants will enjoy a Sunday pre-event motivation gathering, a post-ride celebration including lunch, a pumpkin-lined course full of music, entertainment, themed aid stations and crazy contests. Costumes are encouraged but not required; we will be awarding prizes for the best human costumes and best bike costumes. So! If you like dressing up in costume, putting on face paint or wigs, come join us as your favorite witch, ghost, goblin or monster. Participation ensures a ghoulish-good time!
Come join the fun and show your support for the Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation and Casa Esperanza.
Eat, drink and be scary!
