Last year I ran the 5k thinking that I would get a medal for running the 5k. At the finish line, there was only a medal for the 15k runners and no medal for the 5k runners. All participants get a steaming mug of hot chocolate with a Rice Krispies treat, some pretzels and marshmallows on the side. It's the best part of the race. I ran it for the first time last year and wore a giant blue tutu.
