🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

• Do I have to run? No! Lots of participants will be walking. Some may be dancing. One unfortunate bozo will probably try to pogo stick.
• Can I bring my pet? Yes! Well-behaved dogs and goldfish are welcome on the course. Cats will probably just mock you.
• Can I run with a stroller? Of course. Or a shopping cart filled with Doritos. We won’t judge.
• Is this race officially timed? No, but unofficially you can wear a watch.

👶 Kids Participation

• 1 Mile Registration: Kids signing up for the 1 Mile run are welcome to join their parents/guardians in the 5K for free.
• Dual Registration: If my kid wants to run both the 5K and the 1 Mile Run, do they have to sign up for both? Nope, the 1 Mile Run includes free admission to the 5K Funny Run.

📝 Fun Facts

• Course Measurement: We used advanced AI terrain mapping to pinpoint the distance to the nearest 0.5 millimeter, taking into account changes in altitude and the curvature of the earth. Just kidding. We’re actually just running the same route as the regular Parkrun.
• Results: Will you be publishing results after the race? No, this is a fun run. You know how you did.
• Becoming Funnier: Will this run make me funnier? Probably, but in case it does not, we offer amazing comedy classes for adults and kids.
