6:30pm-8:30pm 
Sunset Park
2698 Milton Rd, Middletown, OH 45042

5k/10k and scavenger hunt! Run/Walk
Run through Middletown neighborhoods with your favorite Middletown run club to see the awesome local Halloween displays!

This is not a race, just a group run with our run club. It is open to the public! We will have turn by turn directions to pass out to everyone, and there will be chalk arrows on the ground. 

Weather updates:

Unfortunately there will be rain this year which may impact some of the displays/features of the displays. We will be there rain or shine but have some options and updates for everyone. See below.

5k/10k:

Due to the weather the chalk markings are all gone. We will however have turn by turn directions to pass out to everyone, and since this is a group run we will have someone you can stay with at a friendly running pace. There will also be a walker leading the 5k for anyone who would like to stay together while walking. 

Scavenger hunt challenge:

**Due to the weather tonight  we are accepting Strava and garmin maps throughout the weekend for anyone who wants to do the challenge with better weather. Winner to be announced Monday! 

To complete the challenge you must visit every display we have marked on the map. You may run a mixture of both routes with a couple add ons, or make up your own course! **The scavenger hunt could be 10-12 miles depending on how you run it! We will have a suggested route for everyone to follow and the house addresses, but NO turn by turn directions or arrow markings. Just take a selfie with each display and show us when you are done.

Anyone who completes the challenge will get a special prize! The fastest challenge time will win a trophy.

Sunday Run Club Option:

We will also be having our Sunday morning run club (normally at the high school track) at Sunset park this weekend at 8am, for anyone who would like to join a group to run the challenge route (10 miles). The weather on Sunday looks great! 

Note that the sun will be up so displays will not have as big of an impact. 

Shirts:

Preordered shirts will be available tonight at Sunset Park for pick up!
