The Spooky Mile for kids goes off first, making the best use of daylight to ensure maximum safety. Given the relative short distance, the participants usually finish in 10-20 minutes.     Moms and dads, aunts and uncles, etc are encouraged to run beside the really little ones for free.

​All three events Start and Finish under the sssspppoookkyyy Start Line.

4:00 PM - 4:30 pm Start Time for the Spooky Mile, NEW in 2018 we'll have Wave Starts to accomodate a record number of little Monsters.
