Join us for a Halloween running of Freaky 5’s in Freeland - a spooktacular running race along the newest section of the Great Lakes Bay Regional Trail system. Taking place at Hayes Park in Freeland, participants can expect professionally timed 5K Run/Walk and 5K Run events and an un-timed youth 1 Mile Fun Run. We LOVE this new section of trail and are excited about showcasing it in the fall. New for 2026 is the addition of an un-timed, casual 5K category. This category is for those who don’t particularly care about their finish times and would like to save a bit on registration. Start times are also earlier so families can prepare for trick-or-treating!
Race is limited to just 500 participants - so register NOW! Race Website: digdeepraces.com/freaky5s
