General Event Details

What is an Afterglow 5k?
The Afterglow 5K is a 5K Run/Walk that is an unique event that is less about how fast you run and more about the experience--getting your 'glow' on (i.e. glow stick bracelets, necklaces, etc.) and having a good time with your family and friends. Whether you are a casual walker or an avid runner, The Afterglow 5K invites you to come be a part of the fun!

Participants?
Runners and walkers can register as individuals, or sign up as part of a team. Teams are made up of four or more runners. If your team has four or more runners, you will receive a discount (see prices below).

Where and when do I purchase my glow accessories?
Your glow accessories are included in the registration fee and will be given to you with your registration packet, however, we encourage participants to bring more if they choose.

FAQ

What is the difference between signing up as a team vs. an individual registration?
Each team member will run the entire 5K, there is no relay element to the event. Signing up on a team is just a great way to have fun with friends and save some money!

Is there a limited number of runners allowed at The Afterglow 5K?
No, we encourage everyone to come be a part of the fun!

Is the event timed?
The Afterglow 5K is not a timed event. Runners and walkers tend to take their sweet time out there, and we realize only a few people really care about their speed. The Afterglow 5K is all about having fun with friends and family while giving back to community. You can run, walk, crawl, or dance if you wish. We suggest self-timing for anyone desiring a finish time.

Yes, strollers are welcome. We just ask that you please start at the back of the field for everyone's safety.
