Hey there! Wanting to sign up the family, need to check are strollers allowed?
Yes, strollers and baby joggers are allowed, but runners with them must start in the back behind other runners for safety reasons.
Do toddlers walking / strolling need to be registered for the 5k?
Toddlers do not need to be registered, however toddlers walking/strolling should line up at the back of the line at the start of the run.
