When does online registration close?
Online pre-registration for the Locust Grove event will close Wednesday, October 13, 2022 at 5pm EST.
Can I show up and register for the 5k or 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk on race day?
Yes.
Race day registration will be available on-site from 12:30-1:30pm EST.
Can I pick up my bib (5k only) and t-shirt on race day if I registered late?
Yes. Race day packet pickup will be available from 12:30-1:30pm ET.
Can I transfer my 5k bib to another runner?
No. Your bib is chipped with YOUR name, YOUR age, YOUR gender. Race results will not be correct.
I'm rallying my group. How can people register on my team?
We've reduced the registration fee so everyone pays the "team price”. During sign-up, registrants are asked, "If you are dashing in honor of an angel, please enter their name here." That’s how we know who is on your team.
Is there a certain date I must register by in order to receive my race packet (with t-shirt) for race day?
Yes. Register by September 16, 2022 to ensure that you receive your packet in time for race day. If you register between September 17 and October 13, we will do our best to get your preferred t-shirt size shipped in time for race day (or prepared for pickup at event) but cannot guarantee it due to printing turnaround times. We promise to do our best! If you're running the 5k, your bib will be ready regardless.
When will I receive my race packet?
Race packets will start shipping every week as we get them ready starting mid-September and you should receive them by race day if you register by September 16, 2022.
Can I register a child under the age of 18?
Yes.
Medal categories for the 5k start at age 5. If you would like your child to receive a t-shirt and be eligible to win a medal, you must register them. If you choose to not register them, your child is welcome to join you, but will not receive a t-shirt or be entered to be in contention for a placement medal.
While we want to maximize fundraising for Rachel's Gift, we do not want to discourage your children from participating with you! Children must be supervised and accompanied by an adult at all times at the event.
Sweating just isn't my thing. Can I just make a donation?
Yes, we understand. You can make a donation here. Thank you for your support!
What is your refund policy?
Refunds will not be granted for the Angel Dash. If you have registered but cannot attend, your registration fee will be considered a virtual registration and you will still receive your Angel Dash items!
What time does the race start?
The event will begin promptly at 2pm EST. Gates open at 12:30pm EST. There will be a photo booth and some vendors and a concession stand to keep you occupied until race time!
We can’t wait to see you but we want to be ready for you so please try to not enter the venue before 12:30pm EST. The Tanger outlet mall is just down the street so if you get there early or are staying in Locust Grove, feel free to enjoy some shopping before you arrive!
Traffic on a Saturday in Henry County can be really bad so please plan accordingly. Strong Rock Parkway will close at 1:45pm EST so you will not be allowed to enter after that time for the safety of the runners.
Where are we running exactly?
You will be running on USATF Certified Course #GA17059WC. The course terrain is pavement and very flat. It is a AJC Peachtree Road Race Qualifying Course. You can find the Course Map here.
If you are walking the 1 mile, you will be walking the track around the football field.
What are the 5k medal categories?
Medal categories for the 5k start at age 5. A full list can be found here.
What happens if there is bad weather?
A little rain won't stop the Angel Dash 5k. However, if there are major weather warnings, check your email for updates.
Do I have to pay for parking?
No. Free on-site parking is available.
What happens if I require First Aid?
No worries. Course attendants will be available to assist you if needed. In addition, we will have EMT services onsite.
Can my dog run with me?
No. We love dogs! But no, pets will not be allowed on the course or the campus per their rules. Please leave pets at home. An exception will be made for service dogs only; leash laws apply.
Will there be portable toilets onsite?
No need. Public toilets are available behind the stadium stands.
Running isn't my thing. Can I just walk the 5k course?
Sure. If you plan to walk the full distance, we request that you start in the back to allow runners closer access to the start line. It may also be best for you to walk the 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk course instead. If you choose to walk the full 5k course, please know that awards will be given to winners as they finish.
Are strollers allowed on the course?
Yes. Strollers (and wagons) are welcomed, but will be asked to start in the back. Please be courteous of your fellow runners!
When will I receive my medal?
Winners will be called to the podium to receive their medals and have a photo taken.
When will I receive my results?
Our timing service company will be onsite and can answer questions about your results. Additionally, a full list of results will be posted and stored here on angeldash.org after the event.
Final Note:
Please take pictures and hashtag them so you can be a part of the nationwide event photos! #angeldash2022
