Do I have to run the 5K or can I walk?
We warmly welcome walkers to participate in the 5K! The course will be open for an hour, which should allow plenty of time for all walkers to finish. Anyone not able to finish within the hour allotted will be given a ride to the finish line by our course support. Finishers of the Run Like Crazy 5K will receive a commemorative "2019 Finisher Medal".

Can I register on the day of the race?
Yes, however we strongly encourage you to register early and online! Run Like Crazy tri-blend shirts will only be available for the first 500 registrants. Walkup registration will be at the Registration Tent at Stars and Stripes Park beginning at 6:30am on race day.

How can I check to ensure that I am registered?
You will receive an email confirmation within minutes of completing your online registration. If you didn't receive a confirmation email, please contact us.

What happens if I register and then am unable to participate?
You are still welcome to pick up your bib and tri-blend shirt, but no refunds will be given.

What if I want to sleep in that morning?
No worries. You can register to Snooze Like Crazy and still support our efforts. Your packet will be comprised of a special Snooze Like Crazy tri-blend shirt to commemorate your sleepy morning!

PACKET PICK UP

Do I need to turn my timing chip in after the 5K race?
Your timing chip is integrated into your race bib and does not need to be turned in.

Yes. Make plans to visit OBIs mobile blood donor bus, enjoy inflatables with the kids and visit a few of our favorite food trucks.

COURSE SUPPORT

How long are the streets closed?
