Looney Days 5K Race Day Information:
We can't wait to see everyone on Saturday, August 1st! We have a record number of pre-registered runners this year, and we are so grateful for the incredible support. Please take a minute to read through the information below, and if you have any questions, leave them in the comments!
Registration
To help race morning run as smoothly as possible, registration will now open at 6:45 AM.
Pre-Registered Runners: Please use the designated pre-registration line if you registered online.
Same Day Registration: A separate line will be available for same day registrations.
Cost is $35, Cash or Venmo only please!
We encourage everyone to arrive early. Same day registration will close promptly at 7:45 AM so we can start the race as close to 8:00 AM as possible.
Parking
Parking at the beach is limited. Once those spots are full, please park across the beach in the field. Please do not park in driveways.
T-Shirts
Anyone who registered before July 16 is guaranteed a shirt.
With the large number of registrations after that date, Sarah and Laney Wacker from Lavish Loon graciously printed additional shirts for us on short notice. We have enough shirts for everyone who registered online.
We will also have a limited number of extra shirts available for same day registrations on a first come, first served basis.
Route
The race route was posted on the Lakes Fit page yesterday and will also be available at the registration table. Volunteers with signs will be stationed along the route to keep you on the correct path and cheer you on!
Results
We're excited to be using Wayzata Results as our timing company this year! A QR code to access race results will be available at the registration table.
Awards
Awards will be announced at approximately 9:00 AM. Medals will be awarded to the top two male and female finishers in each age division. We hope you'll stick around to cheer on all of our winners!
Water
A huge thank you to Vergas State Bank for generously donating water for all of our runners. Volunteers will be waiting at the finish line with ice-cold bottles of water.
Pets
Spectators are welcome to bring pets on a leash. We kindly ask that pets stay off the race course for the safety of our runners.
Thank you again for supporting the Looney Days 5K. We can't wait for a great morning with all of you!
