Virtual participants may complete their chosen route during the three-day weekend and must time themselves and report results for posting. The in-person 5K will be timed and trophies will be presented at a post-race gathering. Door prizes are limited to in-person participants on Saturday morning.

The race began in 2001 to support a memorial scholarship fund at Southwestern University.

A silent auction will be held the morning of the event, with bids accepted starting Friday during packet pickup; a separate silent auction will occur at the afternoon homecoming picnic.
