Other Important Details
Official Race Day
Registration will be open through race day as supplies last. Most people will run that day BUT you can do it when and where works best for you. Because we strive to honor the tradition of in-person races, you’ll receive messages as if that is race day for you, just know that we’re okay with it if you need to do something different.

Where's My Swag?
Bibs & Shirts
Shirts and bibs are printed specifically for each participant. All swag ships separately. Once a registration is complete (paid for), it cannot be changed. If the color of the shirt you selected is out of stock, the next closest color will automatically be substituted for you.
Registered before June 4? Your shirt and/or bib has already shipped!
Register by June 17 and your shirt and/or bib will ship around July 9.
Register between June 18 & June 30 and your shirt and/or bib will be printed after June 30 and will arrive around July 24.
Medals
Medals must be earned by finishing the race. This helps us maintain the spirit of the traditional race experience. Medals will begin shipping shortly after the official race day to those participants who (1) added a medal to their registration AND (2) reported their race finish by the reporting deadline.
To report: click on "report my time" in the menu above. Then follow the prompts.
NOTE:
If you registered by June 25 AND reported your finish time, your medal has either shipped or is in the shipping queue to ship in the next week or two.
Medals have sold out several times and we keep ordering more. If you register after June 25, your medal is being manufactured now and will ship as soon as we have it from the manufacturer. It is expected that your medal will ship around the first week or two of August, 2020.
It’s too bad that this has not been made available to Canadian residents too. 🙁
