Deferment Policy
CHANGING DISTANCE PRIOR TO THE RACE
Runners may make an "event change" on Ultrasignup and change the distance yourself; in the event you upgrade the distance it will generate a code and prompt you to re-register for the new distance. In the event a runner transfers to a higher distance, a pro rata charge will apply. No credit or refund can be given for runners transferring to a lower distance race. You can also contact one of the Race Directors and transfer to a lower or a higher distance. The Night Hawk does not allow runners to transfer entries to other participants.
DROPPING DISTANCE ON RACE DAY
Racers who drop from 50K or 20M to the 20M or 10M will receive a race appropriate finisher award, if available. However, they are not eligible for 1st, 2nd or 3rd place awards.
DEFERRAL
Runners may defer their race entries to the following year, by notifying the Race Directors on or before June 5th. The race deferral is good for one year only. Requests for deferral must be submitted in writing to the Race Directors and runners should make sure their request has been confirmed. The deferral code must be obtained from the Race Directors and used within the first 45 days of the next year’s race registration.
DID NOT START
If you can’t attend, and haven’t deferred, please let the Race Directors know as soon as possible before the start of the race, so your name can be removed from the starters list. You also have the option to remove yourself from the race on Ultrasignup. If you don’t show up and don’t let us know in advance that you can’t make it, you’ll be recorded as DNS in the race results.
RACE CANCELLATION OR POSTPONEMENT
We want this race to happen as much as you do so we will do everything in our power to make it happen. However, in the event the race should be postponed or canceled for reasons beyond the control of the Lawrence Trail Hawks (inclement or unsafe weather conditions; local, state or national emergency), refunds will NOT be made. Race packets will be available at a location to be determined or possibly, but not guaranteed, by mail.
ALTERNATE COURSE
If local authorities, Clinton State Park and the Kansas Trails Council trail steward, deem the trails unsafe for runners or vulnerable to damage due to muddy conditions, an alternative course will be provided by the Lawrence Trail Hawks Race Directors, pending approval by Clinton State Park and the Kansas Trails Council Trail Steward.
This charity run does have a unique twist compared to most run/walk events, with a focus on cookies! At each water station on the course, the participant must eat 3 cookies to move on to the next station. There is, of course, an option for competitive runners to opt out of eating the cookies.

PONY EXPRESS RELAY
David Larson, Mike Miller, Mark German
Lyons, KS 33:42-1984
One of Kansas' original Trail Runs that began in 1982. The course includes roadways, rolling native grassland, cowboys, the famed Suicide Hill and start/finish on Main Street. This course is as beautiful as it is demanding and it brings out the best in runners each year.
Come join us as we run wild through the streets of Cowtown! This fun 5K will take you through Wichita's wild west, along the Museum District, and along the Arkansas River. The course is open for runners seeking a personal best while offering enough eye appeal for those looking for a nice stroll with the family. All participants will receive a t-shirt and participation medal. Awards will also be given by age group and gender.
Additional recognition will be given to runners beating our "Broncos" to the finish line. Each Broncos represents an Old Cowtown gang. If you beat the bronco across the finish line, you're faster than an iron horse. Broncos will run the 5K at 20, 25, 30, and 35 minutes (give or take). If you outrun a bronco you will receive a slider medal to attach to your participation award. These medals are beautiful and will truly be a showpiece to your running collection.
After the run, join us for the best awards ceremony West of the Pecos! Finisher medals will come in gold, silver, and bronze (1st, 2nd, and 3rd respectively) for the categories listed below.

Packet Pickup is scheduled for the Friday before raceday at the Cowtown Museum in the Visitors Center from 10am - 5pm. You can also pick up your packet prior to the race on the 20th of May. Cowtown is located in the heart of Wichita's Museum District at 1865 Museum Boulevard.
The 5K course is certified through USATF. It starts at the Empire House in Cowtown, goes through the streets of the Old West, exits out to the bike path and along the river. Runners will cross the river twice, return to Cowtown and finish at the Empire House.
The kids will race around the streets of Cowtown for approximately two city blocks or 1/4 mile. For those unfamiliar with Cowtown, these streets are not connected to any traffic and there will be no automobiles on these streets. In other words, the kids will be completely safe from traffic and within the museum compound.
All participants are encouraged to explore Cowtown after their events are complete. The awards ceremony will begin after the runners finish. Cold drinks will be available to participants and Restore Hyper Wellness will be on ground to demo Raceday recovery tools. We hope that you will take a relaxing stroll through Wichita's historic streets and enjoy what has become our passion; Wichita's proud American history!
