🎃 THE HAUNTED HALLOWEEN 5K RUN & WALK 🎃
Adrian's Spookiest, Silliest & Most Fun 5K of the Year!
Get ready to run, walk, scream, laugh, and celebrate Halloween with the entire community! 👻🎃
Lenawee Endurance Club is bringing you a Halloween 5K that is about WAY more than just running. Grab your family, gather your friends, put together your wildest costume, and come celebrate Halloween with us!
Whether you're a seasoned runner chasing a new personal best, a casual jogger, a walker, a family looking for something fun to do together, or someone who simply wants an excuse to wear a ridiculous costume in public — YOU BELONG AT THE HAUNTED HALLOWEEN 5K!
👻 COME IN COSTUME!
And we're not talking about just throwing on a pair of cat ears.
GO ALL OUT.
Witches. Ghosts. Superheroes. Zombies. Monsters. Movie characters. Disney characters. Werewolves. Skeletons. Giant pumpkins. Whatever your imagination can come up with!
Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged and absolutely part of the fun.
We'll have plenty of opportunities to show off your costume, take pictures, and celebrate the most creative runners, walkers, and families on the course.
🎃 FAMILY FRIENDLY. COMMUNITY FOCUSED. HALLOWEEN OBSESSED.
This event is designed for EVERYONE.
Bring the kids.
Bring your parents.
Bring your friends.
Bring your running group.
Bring your coworkers.
Bring the neighbor who hasn't run since 2017.
Bring the person who says, "I don't run."
They can walk it.
The Halloween 5K is a welcoming, family-friendly community event where you can get active, have some fun, and enjoy one of the best times of the year together.
