What better time to play dress up than at the third annual Jeepers Creepers race at Daniel Stowe Conservancy! Bust out those Halloween costumes early, sweat a little bit, and have a great time!
NEW this year: A 1 Miler on our wonderful crushed concrete trails!
Runners and walkers in the race can then enjoy free admission to The Gardens to enjoy our fall exhibit: “Scarecrow Hollow”. Be sure to bring your race bib with you!
You will also have access to awesome race pics courtesy of OCR photography.
To top it off, the 10K participants will run the 10K and longest distance race held each year at Stowe. Beautiful, flowy trails and a festive atmosphere will make this race the perfect kick off to fall and spooky szn! There may even be a few special prizes for those who really get in the mood and go all out!
After the race, while you cool down and cheer on all the participants, enjoy firepits, smores’, cold beverages, and cornhole at the Trailhead Store.
5K: Custom awards will be given to the top three overall male and female finishers and the top three male and female finishers 14 and under thru 60 and better in five-year age increments for the 5K.
10K: Custom awards will be given to the top three overall male and female finishers and the top three male and female finishers under 10 through 70 and better in ten-year age increments.
Finisher medals for the 5K and 10K are available during registration while supplies last!
