The Cookie Run is a 5K, 10K, or 13.1-mile half-marathon event focused on a personal and local atmosphere. It is designed to feel less crowded than large races, with capped waves to ensure a more intimate experience. All paces and ages are welcome; participants under 18 require a guardian. The event emphasizes a relaxed, stress-free setting with coordinators present to offer support. Participants receive a running T-shirt (U.S. only), a finisher's medal, a virtual training run, online results, a certificate of completion, and an invitation to join a local running club. A technical shirt upgrade is available for an additional $5. Swag is shipped directly to participants, and race bibs are distributed on race day. For sign-ups within two weeks of the race, shipping may not arrive in time, but participation is still possible. Final details, including course maps, will be sent the Wednesday before the race. Wave start times are at 7:30 AM, 8:00 AM, and 8:30 AM. Coordinators remain on-site for three hours after the first wave to accommodate late arrivals. A virtual run option is available, including a digital training pack, with medals claimable by emailing results to
