Hikers: Hikers! This group is for those who want to participate without the time stress! Lead by two different pace leaders, this non-competitive division will start 1hour early and allow participants to walk/hike the entire course with our designated leaders and without fear of cut offs or time pressure. The Spirit of the hiking division is to include those that enjoy the scenic and supported experience of the event to walk or hike ( no running ) without the worry of cut-offs. ***THIS IS NOT AN EARLY START FOR RUNNERS*** Having Hikers finish before the regular running participants creates a logistical nightmare for our timers so PLEASE observe this rule so we can continue to welcome this division!

Though the hiker division does not have a podium ALL participants are entered into the draw prizing and encouraged to join for games and raffles! 

 If you have any questions or concerns about this group or the historical finishing times of the event please reach out to info@5peaks.com and we will be happy to help get you into the best category for you!
