- Q: How are you handling Covid precautions?
- A: Covid is still around, and we often have participants who are fighting cancer or are survivors who may have weakened immune systems. With that in mind, please stay home if you’re sick, consider wearing a mask if you are not vaccinated, wash your hands, and stay healthy.

- A: Well-behaved, friendly dogs are invited to the event but must stay on leash at all times and remain under control. If your dog barks excessively or is disturbing people or other dogs at the event, you may be asked to remove the dog from the event.
- Q: What is included with my Roanne’s Race Registration?

- Q: What is the course like? Are there a lot of hills?
- A: The courses run along a mostly-flat paved trail. There are a few short segments of dirt and gravel. There is a hill on the 10k course up towards Holdener Park.
- Q: Do I have to run the 10K?
- A: The 5K is designed for both walkers and runners, whereas the 10K is technically designed for runners. However, we do not require anyone to run either one. We only want our 10K walkers to know that if you plan on entering any of the raffles, we hold drawings for the big prizes throughout the awards ceremony, which we start after 90% of our participants have returned, and you may not be back in time.
