For racers gearing up for an engaging day of running, the village park’s open (lower) shelter at 102 Mill Street serves as the hub for registration, race bib collection, runners’ shirts, and bag check on the day of the event. The schedule is tailored to accommodate participants across various distances, starting with the marathon registration at 6:00 am, followed by the half marathon, 5k, and culminating with the 1-mile fun run.
Each race is thoughtfully spaced out, allowing runners ample time to prepare and participate in their chosen distance. The day promises not only a test of endurance and speed across picturesque courses but also a communal celebration post-race. A Chicken Dinner, included for marathon and half marathon participants, offers a hearty meal to replenish and reward the runners’ efforts, with food service commencing around 11:00 am, catering to early finishers and supporters.
Online registration is available until September 30th, providing a convenient option for early sign-ups. Additionally, walk-in registrations on the race day ensure that last-minute decisions to join the event are welcomed, making it an inclusive and accessible event for the community and visitors alike. This race day is designed not just as a competition but as a celebration of fitness, community, and shared meals, making it a highlight on the local sporting calendar.
