It’s time to lace up your shoes for a SPOOKTACULAR event, and get ready to get your ghoul on! The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans Virtual race – Run the ‘Hood – is going scary with the Ghostly Gallop 5K and 10K walk and run! We thought it would be fantastic to donate a portion of our proceeds to charity -so this year we are giving 10% to the Susan G. Komen foundation, as October is breast cancer awareness month.

Other FAQs:

When will I get my race tee? Race tees will mailed out in time for you to wear on race day! We are hoping to do the same with the finisher’s medals; if not, they will arrive 2-3 weeks after the race. **international participants tees/medals/swag cannot be guaranteed to arrive before race day. Sorry.

What will they look like? The shirts will be eerily amazing! A super soft tri-blend tee with ghostly graphics! Women -SIZE UP! They tend to run small! Men’s are true to size! Youth and 3XL shirts will be 100% cotton.

TEE DESIGN COMING SOON!

When does registration end? Registration will end on Thursday, October 3rd, 2013. Why so much earlier than race day? See below!

Can I order extra tees? Yes! You will want more than one. They are that awesome. Each extra shirt will be $18.
