COURSE: The course will be at least three miles but no more than five miles.
PREMIUM: A red long-sleeved moisture wicking shirt
Shirts will be guaranteed to runners & walkers who register by the deadline. There may or may not be a limited number of shirts available on race day. We will not re-order if necessary so you are urged to pre-register to guarantee your shirt on day of race.
Day-of-race registration and packet pickup will take place beginning at 8:30 a.m. in the Pavilion at Pleasant Ridge Park.
AWARDS: This is a time-prediction run. You will be asked to predict your pace-per-mile, running or walking, based on the road and weather conditions that morning, and we will calculate your predicted finishing time. Those participants closest to their predicted pace will receive their choice from a delicious selection of chocolate and candy awards. You must be present when the awards are announced to choose your own award! Walkers are welcome. For the sake of fairness, you are asked to refrain from wearing watches or other timing and pacing devices.
Awards - nearly everyone that participates will get something - with the bigger prizes available to the best predictors of their pace.
NOTE: The race will take place as scheduled regardless of the weather, with one exception: the race may be postponed or cancelled altogether if called for by emergency officials for any reason. Since this is always a possibility in the winter, check the ERC website on the morning of the race if you have any doubt about the race being held.
POST-RACE REFRESHMENTS: There will be refreshments available following the race in the Pavilion.
SPONSORS: the Erie Runners Club.
