COURSE
You will run on the trails at Lake Park.
Note: this is a fun run and the course is not a certified 5K and is not officially timed. We approximate the distance based on terrain and accessibility.
Jogging strollers and large wheel strollers will be fine on the course. We advise against small wheel strollers.
NO REFUND POLICY
We do not offer refunds. This is simply because the costs incurred to produce an event are paid long before the race takes place. For weather related issues, please understand we are at the mercy of mother nature and county officials, so if conditions deteriorate to the point of becoming an unsafe environment for our participants or volunteers, we will react accordingly. Safety will always take precedence.
If you find that you are unable to use your registration, we are happy to transfer it to another person or to one of our other events. You must email us PRIOR to the event at info@ChristmasCookieRun.com for transfers.
