FAQ
TEAMS: Some families or group enjoy running as a Team. If you would like to participate in 1-Mile Memory Walk or 5K Run/Walk as a Team, go to Run Sign Up and register for either. Create or join a team during the registration process. You can also find the Team tab on Run Sign Up and create the team first. Teams with 10 or more people can receive a $5 off code for each team member. Email events@lostandfoundozarks.com for the code.
RACE ROUTE: Follow the signs for the memorial walk or signs for the 5k run/walk. There will be cheerleaders and people helping direct to the correct path on both routes. Large groups please keep right, and runners please use announced passing. (Example: “Passing on your left”) Children under 12yrs old must have a running buddy with them for the 5K. Interactive map coming soon.
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY: The event will be held rain or shine unless the conditions are unsafe (heavy rains, flooding, lightning, high winds, etc.). We will monitor the weather to determine if there are unsafe conditions and make the decision if any action will be taken to modify the race. This could result in a delayed start time or canceling the race entirely. Should any changes occur, we will post the information on our website and our social media pages. There is NO rain date for the event.
