Boo Ha Ha! Be afraid, be very afraid! If the headless horseman doesn't get you, the goblins might....ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!! Some people try to blend in by wearing costumes!
If you like running country roads (the running courses are paved) and enjoy rollers, this one if for you. We meet at a charming park in Bristol, Indiana. The course is lined with old growth trees, horse farms and open space.
All courses start and end at Bonneyville Mill in Bristol, IN. Where is Bristol? In Northern Indiana, this park is just about 5 miles from the 80 Tollroad exit 101.
Monster Mile course will be staffed by the Boy Scouts this year, so you can find your way back to the barn. This is a path through the woods that passes by one of the most photographed creek areas in the area. Often the site for wedding and high school photos.
The 5K course (3.1 miles) is an out and back course from Bonneyville Mill up a grade to LoveWay riding stables and then back. Runners are always happy to see that turnaround point for the dowhill grade to the finish line!
Half Marathoners- it's basically a 3 mile warm up into the rollers. Then a nice downhill grade over to Middlebury where you can hammer out some quick splits. Do save some for the end because the race starts around mile 10 where you start heading back up and over those hills you have been winding down. Three good climbs. When you finish this one, you will feel like you got a good workout!
The past few years, it has been a crisp 50ish degrees at the start...which feels chilly this time of year but it is just perfect for running!
We will have warm cocoa, soup and salty soft pretzels, home baked cookies and more at the finish line along with your custom finisher medal!
Trophies for overall top 3 winners in the 5K and Half Marathon along with Age group medals 3 deep in 15 standard age groups!
PS We are not kidding about the Headless Horseman!

Race Day Details
If you have not done this race before, we would encourage you to do packet pick up on Friday night in order to get the lay of the land. This is a lovely park setting, but the parking is a bit away from the starting line.
* Bring a flashlight on race day for getting to the One Room School building and the Shelter for check-in. This property is out in the county so there are no street lights.
* Boy Scouts will be out there to show you where to park.
* We have indoor restrooms at the race start as well as several outdoor pit toilets in the parking areas.
* Historically, it has been crisp in the 40's to low 50s on race morning- but has warmed up. You might want to wear a "cast-off" top to the start and drop it at the first water top like they do at larger races.
* Please don't litter along the course. If you must discard a Gu packet or clothing, please do so at the water stops so we will see it to pick it up.
