The Pumpkin Classic Race & Walk is a highly anticipated annual event that is a key part of the Morton Pumpkin Festival. It features two race distances: a competitive 10K and a more relaxed, untimed 2-mile fun run/walk. The flat course is known for being fast and scenic, taking runners and walkers on a route that goes through the town of Morton and its outskirts, before finishing in the heart of the festival on Jefferson Street. As a signature festival event, all finishers are rewarded with post-race amenities including the famous pumpkin donuts and pumpkin pie awards for top finishers in the 10K.
