Can I register on the day of the event?  
Yes, however, we would love to have you register earlier so we can be sure to have plentiful food, drink and extras for all of our runners/walkers. Registration closes at 8:40am on the day of the event.

How far is the Kid's Run?  
The Kid's Run will be will be approximately 1/3 of a mile long. It will be held first. Older kid's will have the option to join in on the 5k fun if they would like a longer distance. 

Are there t-shirts for the runners?
Since most of you have more t-shirts than you can handle we are not providing t-shirts. Instead all proceeds for this event will go toward the Cherokee Trail Expansion Project. To learn more about it, check out: www.cherokeeiowa.net/trailsystem

I am unable to run, but can I volunteer? 
Yes!  We welcome all volunteers. Please send us an email at cherokeetrailrun@gmail.com to let us know if you are interested in volunteering. 

Why is there a picture of a dog on the FAQ page?  
Great question!   "Piper" was the first dog to complete the course run and her smile proves that anyone can do it. She remains a trusted adviser to the Cherokee Trail Run committee and is a constantly reminding us to enjoy our outdoor experience, no matter the conditions.
