What to Consider Before You Get Started
A: Getting people to sign up for any event, let alone a virtual race, is a lot of work.
B: If you expect to get less than 500 people registered, it's probably best to do this on your own. We suggest you talk to our friends at Oakcoins (for Medals (ask for Janae)) and Namify (for shirts (ask for Jeshua)). There are a lot of shipping options out there. We prefer ShippingEasy.
Whether 2,000 people or 50,000, we'll help you knock it out of the park.
Our fees are all-inclusive and are listed below. They are per runner depending on the expected event size. That includes medal & swag design, registration processing, fulfillment services, shipping, and customer service.

Planning a traditional race and looking for help with registration and/or swag? We do that too! Because every race is different, we don't have standard pricing for that, but let us know your plans and how many participants you're expecting and we can give you an idea of what it will cost.
