Halloween in Emmaus 5k

The 7th Annual KNBT Halloween in Emmaus 5K promises to be another unique
event.  Runners will dash before cheering
crowds of up to 20,000 spectators (not a typo) along the already
well-established Halloween Parade route. Many racers will be decked out in
creative and bizarre costumes.  This year’s
race will again start just 30 minutes before the start of the Halloween Parade
to ensure more spectators are in attendance.   Cash prizes will be awarded to top runners
and costume contest winners.  Any racer
wearing a costume will automatically be entered into the costume contest.  Proceeds from this race will benefit the
Emmaus Halloween Parade and the Emmaus Parks system.  All Runners MUST park in the Emmaus High
School Annex Parking Lot on North Street and Macungie Ave.  Easiest access
is off of Cedar Crest Blvd.  (Carpooling is recommended.)  All Entrants must be able to run a 5K (3.1
Miles) in under 40 minutes.  Any racer
still on the course will be removed for the start of the Halloween Parade.
