About this race

IT'S Not to late!!! 

 

You can still score a Running Scared (Halloween) finisher medal and long sleeve shirt.   Run your own spine-tingling race, when & where you want.  You can give yourself the complete experience of the Running Scared 13K—where thrills, chills, and fast times collide!

Break it up, or run it all at once.  Just record your time, and maybe take/post some pictures!

Whether daring enough to conquer the 13K in one run, or break it up into several sections, we've got you covered.  This Halloween-themed event delivers a fun that's perfect for runners of all levels.   Costumes are encouraged, especially if you do some of your miles on Halloween...LOL...just think of all the people that will see you run by them looking like a carrot, or a clown, or an alien, or whatever.  You're guaranteed to brighten some passerbys day, so come dressed to impress (or frighten) as you take on a course filled with seasonal spirit.   All athletes will receive a custom bib, a long-sleeve race shirt—perfect for those crisp fall mornings—and a custom finisher medal to commemorate their accomplishment.

Best of all...we're going to ship all those goodies straight to your door once you register.

  Whether you’re running for fun, fitness, or a frightfully good challenge, the Running Scared 13K is sure to be a hauntingly good time you won’t want to miss!
