In The Pumpkin Run Trifecta, you can run or walk all three events any time during the event period. Not ready for a half-marathon? Try the Pumpkin Run Double Trouble by completing both the 5K and 10K at any point during the event period. Bundles also come with a price break!
Participants will be able to see how they stack up against other finishers by uploading their times via the ASICS Runkeeper App, manually, or using any other run tracker app and will be able to print a Finisher Certificate.
Complete your event anytime between registration open and October 14th, 2023 (you can do it all in one day or spread it across the weeks leading up to October 14, 2023). If you complete your virtual event weeks or months in advance of the September 20th registration date, you will obtain your race packet along with the other pre-registrants at that time as we will not have packets ready until the week of October 1st.
