RULES & FAQS
- Participants must live in the neighborhood or be invited as friends or family of someone that lives in Rolling Meadows.
- All participants wishing to take part must register through this online system.
- All participants must wear their number on their outermost layer of clothing for identification purposes.
- Shortly after the race starts and participants start to spread out we will move everyone onto the sidewalks. All participants must stay on the sidewalks from then on.
- No littering.
- If you think you will need hydration and/or nutrition bring it with you. Odds are your neighbors will have water and snacks along the way but please don't rely on them for such items. There is only one official hydration station (may or may not be manned) and it will have only water and gels at the half way point.
- Kids get medals for the Kids K, no one gets medals in the 5k. We are here to have fun and in order to keep the cost $5 for entry, we cannot have medals, awards, or chip timing. Manual times will be taken but if you wish to know your time right away when you cross please wear a stopwatch or GPS device.
- Shirts are not given with your $5 registration. There is an option during registration to add-on a t-shirt if you desire but it is not mandatory.
- Strollers are allowed but are expected to start in the back as to avoid any tripping that may occur.
- We love dogs, but for safety purposes they are not allowed to run in these events.
- Always be nice and polite, we are all neighbors and good sports.
