Ice cream
Sometimes, unusual post-race refreshments can be a real delight. Of course, runner-appropriate food and beverage should always be available - including bananas and/or other fruit, bagel or other starch, juice - but something extra can add to the memory of the event.
Courtney's Ice Cream Race, a 5k in Grove City PA, offers an all-you-can-eat ice cream buffet following its Wednesday evening race. The Ridge Run, a 5k and 10k in Chicago IL, offers post-race ice cream from a well-known, local creamery.
Be sure to have adequate on-site refrigeration, so runners' post-race treats will look and taste just as they would at the local ice cream parlor.
