🧛♂️🕯️🩸 Dare to Dash… Into the Underworld? 🩸🕯️🧛♀️
This Halloween, the gates to the underworld creak open… and you’re invited in.
Descend 650 feet below the earth’s surface and race through the shadowy tunnels of a real salt mine, lit by flickering lanterns and eerie candlelight, every twist and turn feels like a step deeper into the unknown…
Join us on October 31st at 8:00 AM for Strataca’s Annual 5K Monster Dash: Underworld Awakening, where the air is chillingly still, shadows stretch along the salt walls, and you never quite know what’s lurking just beyond your light.
🦇 Come in costume and embrace your place among the creatures of the underworld! Whether you’re a classic vampire, crypt keeper, or something entirely unearthly, the most fang-tastic looks may earn a devilishly good surprise.
🩸 This isn’t your average 5K… You’ll need a helmet (bike helmets work great) and a light source — headlamps or flashlights are highly recommended to guide your way through the underground darkness. Helmets are required and will be inspected by staff before entry.
🕯️ Important Details
No one under 8 may enter. Ages 8–17 must be accompanied by an adult. Select your starting heat when registering — limited to 30 participants per heat. Run or walk, but walkers should choose an earlier heat. Anyone still on the course at 12:00 PM will be escorted to the finish. This is a fun run, clocks will be located at the start and finish for self-timing. Arrive at least 15 minutes before your heat to pick up your race packet. Late arrivals may be moved to the final heat.
