About this race

The Werewolf Chase is a free fun run the chase begins on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at 11:00 AM  at Fort Wayne Outfitters. Gather your friends and family to participate in this unique and action-packed event.

The Werewolf Chase Fun Run offers a one-of-a-kind experience. Race through the downtown Fort Wayne trail network and evade the werewolves in pursuit. Can you outrun them and make it to the finish line?

How the chase part works:

Participants put on the flag football belts supplied by the Getting Miles crew.

Runners, walkers and strollers launch from the starting line at 11AM.

Everybody gets a five minute head start.

At 11:05, the werewolves are released and the chase begins.

Your goal is to survive the 3-mile course before a werewolf catches you!

  • The Werewolf Chase course is wheelchair friendly.
  • There's not an aid station on the course. Water and snacks are provided at the start/finish line.
  • You'll hand over your belt at the finish line and receive some candy and a fun medal if you have both of your flags.
