HalloWOOGIE 50k

Because of the continued government shutdown, we have had to cancel the traditional Potomac Heritage route. But just because the government isn’t running doesn’t mean we will not. We bring you the HalloWOOGIE 50k.

Course

The course will not be marked, you are responsible for following the proper route and checking in. Download the GPX file or check out the course on footpath.app.

Aid stations

We will have lots of water, some “challenge” snacks, whatever leftovers from PB&J and you also will be swinging by your cars around mile 10, so please bring anything special that you may need. Fletcher’s will have more of the same. There are chances and challenges for you to eat cupcakes, ice cream, and other goodies along the route, so bring money if you want to partake.

Bonus points

We’ll have a full list by Friday, but there will be bonuses for:

• Best Costume
• Bobbing For Apples
• Egg Toss
• Mummy Wrap
• Cupcake Of Doom
• The Exorcist Steps

Notes

• When you arrive, please try and park on Shoemaker St NW or Spring of Freedom St NW. We are going to try and not fill up the general parking lot and save it for the general public. There should be two volunteers there to direct you.
• Bathrooms are open both there and across the street and there are porta potties as well.
• Bathrooms are open at Fletcher’s Boat House, too.
• Multiple places along the route to stop and jump into a bathroom at Baked & Wired, McDonald’s, Trader Joe’s, etc.

Make sure and sign in, so we know that you are out there on course.

General safety: Be safe out there, as this is an urban ultra so there is going to be lots of turns, crossing of major roadways, dogs, lots of other public (bikers, walkers, runners, scooters, etc.)

Come to have fun, remember this is a FatAss and you are free to run where ever you like.
Just let a volunteer know if you’ve completed the course, are dropping, taking a different route, etc.
