New for 2026: We will have a big pumpkin festival going on during the event. We will have games, face painting, and more! We are also adding a .25 mile stroller dash.
This race is perfect for the runner who believes all seasons should be pumpkin season. Frolic through the leaves of scenic Seward Park, with a pumpkin spice twist. Choose from the 1 mile pumpkin dash, stroller dash, 5K, or 9K distance. We will also have a Kid’s Race for our littlest pumpkins.
Need some extra spice? Pick a pumpkin from our mini pumpkin patch and run with it! Finish to a festive fall finish line celebration and fresh Pumpkin Spice Latte (included with your registration). This will be the most basic race you have ever attended, and we can’t wait!
