5K for Pizza

What is included with Registration?

While enjoying the company of likeminded people, you get to run a flat and fast course along the picturesque Hoboken waterfront. Though you don’t have to run for time, we’ll time you just in case you’re into that kind of thing…

• Prior to the start, at packet pickup, you’ll get a custom bib commemorating the event. 
• At the finish, you’ll get to enjoy an epic pizza party where you'll get to devour some local slices.
• We’ll also provide race photos, and have other sponsored giveaways (e.g. water, sports drinks, swag) which are TBD.  

 

What should I bring to the race?

Bring a smile and yourself!

We strongly encourage participants not to bring bags or additional personal items, outside of what you can run with, to the race.

 

Will there be "day of" race registration?

At this time, we intend to offer online race day registration, although our events commonly sell out beforehand.

If the race sells out, we will no longer offer race day registration. It’s best to take advantage of early bird & pre-registration to secure entry.

There will be no "in person" registration.

 

Will there be a bag check?

We encourage participants not to bring a bag, but there will be a bag check for $10 exact cash or Venmo. Card readers will not be on site.

*5k for Pizza staff & volunteers are not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen bags or items from bags checked at 5k for Pizza bag check.* 

 

Can I get a refund?

Per our registration policy, we do not issue refunds under any circumstances.

 

Will you cancel if there is bad weather?

The 5K for Pizza is a rain-or-shine event. However, in the case of lightning or other severe weather, the event may be delayed until conditions improve or, if necessary, cancelled altogether. The City of Hoboken does not provide scheduled "rain dates", and events may proceed in rain, shine, or snow.
In the event of significantly inclement weather (e.g., lightning in the area), we reserve the right to adjust the course, modify event components, delay the start, or cancel the event to ensure participant safety. While we make every effort to avoid cancellation, we may be required to do so by our facility or municipal authorities.
Please note that entry fees are non-refundable under any circumstances. Funds collected are used in advance to plan and produce the event. By registering, each participant accepts this risk.
Our priority is to host a fair, safe, and enjoyable event. All decisions regarding delays or cancellations are made in coordination with local safety officials, including police, fire & rescue, and medical personnel.
