9th Annual Bilby Foot Race Halloween, October 31st 2008
Start & Finish at the Bilby Research Center

The course is a two-mile loop around South Campus. The race is open to everyone, with or without an NAU affiliation, with ribbons awarded to all participants. There is usually a good mix of runners, including a few serious athletes as well as a bunch of people who just want to have some fun outdoors. We give away prizes and treats afterward, according to a random draw. There is also a special award that caters just to NAU staff and faculty: the best department team.
