HillbillyRun

HOW IT WORKS

Hillbilly Run is a 2.5 mile obstacle race. You're not just running against the clock - you're running from angry Hillbillys. It's a hoopin' hollerin' good time. Throughout the race there are a number of natural and man-made obstacles composed of mud, water, hay, and pumpkins. You will need to climb, crawl, dive and run your way to the finish line, all while avoiding those backwoods Hillbillys. Runners may choose NOT to complete an obstacle BUT any runner who does not complete an obstacle will not be eligible for prizes.

Spectators may accompany you to the race. Your registration in the race includes your admission into the Lazy Acres Pumpkin Patch upon completion of the race. Spectators may purchase admission to the Pumpkin Patch at the gate on race day. Admission cost is $8.50 plus tax. Lazy Acres Pumpkin Patch includes a 4.5 acre corn maze, jumping pillow, pig race show, and many more family friendly attractions.

WHAT YOU GET

A commemorative T-shirt to let everyone know you survived the Hillbilly Run.

Admission to the pumpkin patch and all the fun activities upon completion of the race.

When designing your costume, please remember Lazy Acres Pumpkin Patch is a very family friendly atmosphere with many young children present. Use good judgement and good taste. Inappropriate costumes will not be allowed.

There are a limited number of spaces available for this race. Rather than release 1,000+ runners on the course at once, runners will be divided into waves. The first wave will begin at 8:00 a.m. and successive waves will occur approximately every 20-30 minutes. We recommend you arrive at least 45 minutes prior to your wave to check in.
