Run 4 the Goo! - 5K

Registration & Packet PickupSecure your spot (and your shirt) by registering online before race weekend. Packet pickup and in‑person registration will be available Friday from 5:00–6:30 PM at the Burgoo pavilion — look for the table next to the pie stand, because of course that’s where the real action is. Online registration will pause during these in‑person windows because even we can’t stir the Goo and the internet at the same time. Race‑day packet pickup begins Saturday at 7:15 AM, again by the pie stand under the pavilion. General InformationRun 4 the Goo is a fun, friendly 5K run/walk held during the legendary Arenzville Burgoo, now celebrating 187 years of stirring that famous ‘goo. Burgoo is small‑town magic at its finest — vendors, carnival rides, games, and FREE entertainment both Friday and Saturday night. Friday Night - We’re kicking things off with Kid Copter, featuring the one and only John Love — bringing hometown energy and the kind of tunes that pair perfectly with a bowl of Goo.Saturday Night - Local favorite Jaxon Dion opens the show, followed by country music legend Andy Griggs taking the stage. It’s going to be a Goo‑d time from first note to last. And for our Goo’ers Away From Goo, the virtual 5K is still alive and well — run wherever you are, pun included.
