Each in-person participant of the 5K race and one mile walk will receive a special edition finishers medal, tee shirt and a free beer* at the end of the race. Each virtual participant will receive a virtual race badge to post all over your social media accounts for the ultimate bragging rights! How can you beat that? Boy Howdy!! On-site, same-day registration is available from 7:00 - 8:15 for an additional $10. Please note: registrations received after 5/31/25 will not be guaranteed a t shirt. SAME DAY REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT GUARANTEED A SHIRT OR A MEDAL. But you will get the beer can, signed by Craig! Race packet pickup at the start line the day of the event. Please arrive 30-45 mins prior to start time. In 2016 and 2019 Robert Taylor shot the starting gun. And, each year, Craig Johnson signed everyone's beer cans. Who knows what will happen in 2024!
