The RecSports Domer Run is here! Registration is officially closed.

What is the Domer Run?

Upon the University of Notre Dame's founding, Fr. Edward Sorin emphasized the importance of having community and space to invigorate the body and recreate the mind. Thus, the Domer Run was started and has since been a great RecSports tradition. It's a fun run where participants can choose between the 5k, 10k, and 2-mile walk to experience the beauty of Notre Dame's campus while gathering in fellowship and developing the mind, body, and spirit together. Join us on October 7 at 10:00 a.m. for this fun race!

Both runs are open to participants aged 13 and older. The walk is open to all ages. Strollers are allowed on the walk. Pets are not permitted.

Location: The Start/Finish Line will be outside the Irish Green Tent on the corner of Angela Boulevard and Eddy Street.

Time: All participants should have their racing bibs and be at the start line by 9:45 a.m. Events will commence at 10:00 a.m.

Registration is closed.

Do I have to purchase a registration for my child in a stroller?

If your child would like a commemorative shirt, they will need to be registered! If they are just along for the ride, no registration is required. Please note that strollers are only permitted on the 2-mile walk.

When is packet pick-up?

There will be two opportunities for participants to pick up their packets! 

Early Packet Pick-Up will be on the first floor of the Duncan Student Center on Thursday, October 5 from 3:30 - 7:00 p.m.

Race Day Packet Pick-Up will be in the Irish Green Tent from 9:00 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. Any packets left unclaimed at 9:45 a.m. will be available for pick up the week following the race. 

All participants must have a photo ID to pick up their packet. Waivers for all participants must be signed at Packet Pick-Up.

Can my friend pick up my packet for me?

Hoping a friend can pick up your packet? Request an electronic waiver ahead of time by emailing Race Director, Veronica Ballinger at vballinger@nd.edu by 9:00 a.m. Wednesday, October 4.

How old do I have to be to register for the Domer Run?

All Domer Run participants must be at least 13 years old if they plan to race in the 5k or 10k. The walk is welcome to friends of all ages!

What is included with my registration fee?

All participants can expect to receive a commemorative Domer Run 2023 t-shirt, light snacks and water, and a racing bib that will record their race time! Results from the race will be available to racers live, and will also be available online after the event.

Please note that the 2-mile walk is not a timed event.

What happens if it rains?

In the event of rain, the run will still take place! If the weather is inclement (i.e. extreme temperatures, lightning, thunder, etc.), RecSports will work with Notre Dame Police and Fire to make a decision for the safety of all participants and race staff.  There will be no refunds in the instance of day-of cancellation due to weather.

I can't run anymore, can I request a refund?

RecSports can not issue any refunds or transfer any registrations after purchase.
