October Event Update

August 10, 2020/in Crawlin' Crab Half Marathon & 5K, Race Events, Virtual Race, Wicked 10K /by jandarace

While we hoped to host everyone this year, our highest priority will always be the health and safety of our participants, volunteers, spectators, community, and staff. The decision to shift our October events to home editions was made after working tirelessly with our state and local government, health officials, and race partners to explore all possibilities to host a safe event that includes the celebration we love.

2019 Anthem Wicked 10K Race Recap

October 30, 2019/in Race Events, Wicked 10K /by jandarace

There are two ways you can run the Wicked 10K. You can run it like every other race, in a tank and shorts and try to be a fast as you can be. Or, you can truly make it a fun run, and dress up in a costume. Personally, my favorite costumes to see are the group costumes, where their full range of mobility is prohibited. Not because I think I’ll be able to beat them (that is a bonus!), but because that is when creativity shines.
