Stick around after the race for Glow in the Garden Wishing Lanterns on the Eclipse Lagoon ($5 per lantern) and family games and activities in the outdoor gardens. If you purchase a wishing lantern with your race registration, your wishing lantern will be in your packet.

Walkers are welcome! Unfortunately due to the width of the path and number of people on the path, we cannot allow strollers or dogs.
