Race Categories and Descriptions

Finish Line Festival

The race is just the beginning. After your race ends, stick around for the Finish Line Festival — a relaxed post-race celebration in the park with local businesses, community organizations, live music, a food truck, and activities for kids. It’s a great chance to cheer on other racers, meet your neighbors, and let the kids enjoy a well-earned bounce.

Pre-Race Orientation & Spaghetti Dinner

Come join us Friday, September 11th from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. for some pre-race activities.

Spaghetti Dinner: Come carb-load for your big race! Reserve your plate now for $10 per person. Includes spaghetti (with or without meat), a side salad, a slice of garlic bread, a bottle of water, and a chocolate chip cookie. Additional drinks and desserts available for sale at the event.
Pre-Race Orientation: Volunteers will be on site and around the course to answer questions about the race. Where should I park? Where is the finish line? Where do I stage my gear for the transitions? How does the timing chip work? Etc. Take a walk and familiarize yourself with the course. Every little bit of preparation helps with race-day nerves!
If you ordered a shirt when you registered, you can pick it up Friday night and/or buy more (while supplies last).

The Spaghetti dinner is free for all Diamond Kid volunteers! Head over to our Volunteer page to sign up.
