Participants can opt for dual-race combos (5K + half or full marathon) and benefit from live tracking, festive post-race celebrations, and strong community support . The event also supports a great cause, with proceeds donated to the Sanford Children’s Miracle Network — in 2024 alone, more than $20,000 was raised for children in need .
