Thriller Lake - 12, 6, 3 Hour and Trick or Treat Fun Run
Date: Saturday, October 24, 2026
The Thriller Lake Endurance Run is a 12, 6, and 3 hour timed loop event on the 2.2 mile loop around Miller Lake at Little Mulberry Park in Gwinnett County, GA. It's a Halloween party combined with a race, featuring runners in costume, food, and music.
For 2025, Classic Running and Mount To Coast are providing overall winners with their choice of shoes!
The Trick or Treat Fun Run is for kids and adults of all ages looking for a trick or treat experience in a fun, safe, and positive community setting. Participants will complete one loop of the Miller Lake paved 2.2 mile trail with plenty of opportunities to experience the magic of Halloween. Costumes are highly encouraged, practically required!
We will have several trick or treat stations along the course stationed with costumed volunteers and most importantly, candy!
The Fun Run will start at 6:30 PM, just as the sun starts to set. Most walkers can complete this loop easily under an hour and should be done before full dark (7:30 PM). Strollers are allowed but bicycles, scooters, or motorized devices are discouraged.
The fun run will not be timed. Instead, every participant will get a glow-in-the-dark wrist band when you check in. We’ll also have a special treat bag available for the kids, or they can bring their own!
There will be a costume contest! The top two best costumes will be acknowledged, and the overall BEST costume will receive tickets to a Falcons game.
PERC Coffee will be brewed on site for all participants, spectators, and crew!
