Event Description

It's time to haunt or be haunted this October with Columbus Running Company's Fab-BOO-lous 5K, 10K & Half Marathon, a virtual race spook-tacular unlike any other! Choose an option from the virtual 5K (3.1 miles), virtual 10K (6.2 miles) or dauntingly-scary virtual half marathon (13.1 miles) and carve your own long-distance route wherever you are! Use your witchcraft to fend off the ghosts, ghouls and goblins, or JOIN THEM when you don one of our costume-themed neck gaiters out on the streets or trails! All registrants will receive one of three randomly selected costume-themed neck gaiters, a custom race t-shirt and an utterly Fab-BOO-lous race medal (both with glow-in-the-dark elements), and more! Sign up today before the clock strikes midnight!

Carve Your Own Route

You know that genius creativity you use to carve the most unique jack-o-lantern in the neighborhood every year? You know...mostly to one-up your next-door neighbor Ron? Sorry not sorry, Ron. Well, now you can use it to carve your own unique running route around your city, town, or neighborhood! Submitting your results is also easier than stealing candy from your own kid's trick-or-treating haul. Oh, you guys don't do that? Just us? Yikes...

Anyway, all you need to do is run your chosen distance (easy, right?) on the spookiest route you can find, then simply come back to our page anytime between Oct. 1 and Oct. 31 and submit your time via our results tab (top corner of this page). So simple, it's scary (well, all of the stuff that isn't running, that is).
