In response to some people asking for clarification - this is definitely an event for all ages and mobility! We expect and hope that this year we have more people walking than running!
The whole idea behind the event is to get people active and out having fun exercising. That could be walking or running, 2km or 5km, it really doesn't matter the speed or the distance!
The reason we got rid of the 1st-3rd place prizes and the categories this year, and made it all based on raffle tickets (which participants pickup in stations every km), is that we want it to be a family fun run/walk event and NOT a race! We don't care who crosses the finish line first, or last, we just want people to have fun! Every person who participates has a chance to win the raffle prizes.
I hope that helps clarify and we hope to have lots of people out participating - not racing!
