The youngest runners kick off the festivities with the Under-13 Boys & Girls Mile Race starting promptly at 11:30 AM.

For those in the Under-17 category, another two-mile race starts at 12:15 PM, providing an opportunity for older juniors to showcase their talents. As the day progresses, women of all ages take center stage with a three-mile run beginning at 12:40 PM, offering both competitive and recreational runners a chance to shine.
The festival culminates in the Malcolm Cup race at 1:30 PM, where male competitors from various age groups will face off over a challenging four-mile course. This event promises thrilling competition as athletes navigate through varied terrain that includes hills and flat stretches.
All participants are encouraged to collect their prizes directly after each race by visiting the administration desk near the finish line. Alternatively, awards can be forwarded to individuals or teams at a later time if they cannot attend immediately following the races.
