Boos & Brews 5K (Syracuse)
About this race
Join us for an event the epitomizes the concept of combing Fun and Run into One! The Halloween themed Boos & Brews 5K has become a very popular haunted 5K experience for both the young in age and the young in heart. For the past 3 years this event has sold out, so we have decided to officially add a second start time for 2026. When registering you will now have the option of registering for either the 10:00am start time or the 11:30am start time. Both "heats" will be capped at 250 participants.
Costumes are not mandatory but certainly encouraged. The event ends with a fun post race party at WT Brews. The post race event at WT Brews will include beer specials, homemade Halloween cookies and of course "Ghoulash"
This year's giveaway is a custom long sleeve shirt that continues the trend of must have apparel for Halloween day. Also, all finishers will receive a custom and very appropriate finisher medal.
Overall, Masters Overall and Age Group awards. There will be a separate costume contest with prizes awarded for best, most unique/creative, and scariest.
The race event will once again benefit the Baldwinsville Meals On Wheels
