## Description

RIP: Run in Putnam is Putnam County's spookiest 5K through the hauntingly beautiful streets of historic downtown Eatonton, Georgia.Dress up, show up, and run or walk your way through 3.1 miles of tree-lined streets, historic architecture, and enough Halloween spirit to raise the dead. Along the way, you'll pass legendary haunted locations, and perhaps the ghosts themselves. 

After you cross the finish line, the real party begins. Join us at City Center Stage for a free afterparty, including an awards ceremony, local vendors, and our legendary Costume Contest, where the most creative, scariest, and downright funniest costumes take home bragging rights and prizes.

What's included:

RFID-timed 5K race through historic downtown Eatonton
Up-close encounters with Eatonton's most famous resident ghosts
Age group and overall awards
Costume contest with prizes
Post-race after-party with local food and beverage vendors
A whole lot of Halloween spirit
Whether you PR or come in dead last, RIP: Run in Putnam is the kind of race that keeps you coming back from the grave every year.
