5K Run/Walk
The 5k starts near Shelter #1, just northeast of the south parking lot. We will be mostly on trails, running the upper portion of Lincoln Park in TWO LOOPS. We'll run north along trail #6, passing the wading pool and shelter #5. At the north end of the park, runners will turn west and loop around to head south on trail #2, down and around the bathrooms near south parking lot/start line, then back north again for loop #2. The finish line and starting line are in the same location. Course will be clearly marked with volunteers stationed along the way to guide you. Advance registration includes a Monster Dash t-shirt and timing bib. No need to register children in strollers.

Kids Monster Dash
Your little monster can choose from either a 250 (under 12 years) or 100 (5 years and under) meter dash. The Kids Dashes are short trail runs with our friendly, costumed monster leading the way while the runners chase behind. These are untimed fun runs, and will take place in "heats" to alleviate crowding. We will start with the 100 meter dashes immediately following the completion of the 5k, and end with the 250 meter dash (when the 100 meter dashes are complete). Participants will wear a "number one" bib and receive a plastic finishers medal so they can feel official. Advance registration includes a Monster Dash t-shirt.
Open to ages 12 and under.
