Course & Travel Notes

The Birchwood 5K + Costume Run takes place on Halloween morning at Fairview Park in Ohio, with an early 9:00 AM start—so you'll want to get there while it's still dark (sunrise isn't until 7:58 AM). If you're flying in, Cleveland Hopkins International Airport is super close, just 1.6 miles from the venue, which makes getting to the race a breeze. Pack layers for late October weather, with highs around 64°F and lows near 46°F, and definitely bring a rain jacket since there's about a 40% chance of rain that time of year. The venue sits at 640 feet elevation, so it's nice and manageable if you're coming from a different climate.
