Check out our most common questions below!

Can I run with a Dog?

No, we ask that you leave your four-legged friends during the Trot!

What's included in my registration?

All paid participants will receive an entry to the distance of their choice, a finisher shirt, a medal, bib number with timing, virtual coupons, and the opportunity to post your finisher time and personal photos of your trot.

What are the COVID requirements?

We will be adhering to the current state and county guidelines at the time of the event, which as of early November 2022 there are no restrictions!

Can I run with a stroller?

Due to the size of our event, strollers are ONLY allowed under the following conditions:

  • 5K – You may WALK with a stroller.  Running with strollers is NOT allowed in the 5K.  Strollers in the 5K MUST line up in the final two waves.
  • 5 Mile – You may run OR walk with a stroller.  Your pace must be faster than 12 min/mile (finish the 5 Mile within 1 hour) in order for us to open the streets according to our event permit.

If you have a little one along for the ride, they do not need to be registered unless you want them to receive a shirt and medal.

We thank you in advance for your cooperation. The policies are in place to ensure the best and safest experience for all participants

Will there a Team Competition?

Yes! We will give $100 gift certificates to the top 5 largest teams over 20 members.

Do you offer any discounts?

We currently offer our multi-registration discount for groups of 3 or more. Because $5 of your entry goes towards one of our 96 charities, we don’t offer any other discounts. As a reminder, your entry fee includes a t-shirt, medal and timing!

How do I get my shirt and medal?

Beat the race day rush and pick up your materials in advance of the race! All registered participants will receive a bib, tshirt, and goodie bag. If you can’t make it to any of the Expo days, don’t fret; you’re welcome to send a friend or family member to Expo to pick up your race day necessities – as long as they come armed with a copy of everyone’s ID and waiver.

Dates & Times:

Can my friend or family member pick up my bib?
