FAQ

Q: Where do I park?
A: Parking will be available at FOTP with additional parking at Eagle Ridge Elementary School located across the street from FOTP (south side). We recommend you arrive early, as entry into the parking lots may be blocked for periods of time once the 1 mile fun run begins.

Q: Where will onsite registration be located?
A: In the atrium of the main building at Fellowship of the Parks during packet pick up and on race morning. Onsite registration will close at 8AM on race morning for the 5K.

Q: Can I reserve a shirt in a certain size?
A: When you check the box next to a t-shirt size on your registration form, you are helping us plan how many shirts we need to order in each size. T-shirt sizes are not guaranteed and are limited to the first 400 racers.

Q: Do runners start at a separate time than walkers?
A: No; however, we ask that runners lineup at or near the starting line and the walkers gather towards the back of the line. We also ask that all racers allow people to pass on the left. If you're at a slower pace than those behind you, please stay to the right of the path.

Q: Are pets allowed?
A: Unfortunately, not this year. Please leave your pets at home.

Q: Are strollers allowed in the 5K?
A: Yes, feel free to participate with your babies or kids in strollers. However, we ask that you please start the race near the back of the lineup to allow our runners a head start and avoid potential collisions.

Q: Can I wear ear phones when I run?
A: Sure! If that helps you keep in step, then feel free to race to your favorite tunes.
