Gather your friends, pick out a costume and get ready to run in a frighteningly fun race! The EVL Half Marathon and 5K is a Halloween themed event taking place on Saturday, October 27. Participants are invited to run in costume and enjoy other Halloween related activities but this is by no means mandatory and runners of all abilities are encouraged to attend. Both the half marathon (11 a.m.) and the 5K (11:15 a.m.) start and finish at 5 Monroe Street in the village and the rolling course heads north through scenic, lightly traveled rural roads with dancing witches and costumed musicians adding to the festive atmosphere. Runners will receive custom designed medals, string backpacks, shirts and great discounts from local merchants. The race also benefits Nazareth Food Pantry and Ellicottville Sports Boosters – a group dedicated to getting area children involved in athletics.

After the run, head to Ellicottville Brewing Company where Age Group and Costume Awards will be given out followed by a “spirited” After Party. Treat yourself to craft beer, great food and fantastic give aways while enjoying the unique, harmony-packed, funky, Folk-Rock, world sound of PA Line. Don't miss this wicked weekend of Halloween fun!
