Important Notes

Note: Once a race reaches capacity, a limited number of entries are reserved for the "Charity Fund." These entries are double the price and all proceeds go to local charities and non-profits that are involved in the race. Once we hit the Charity Fund entries, this is the only way to register for that distance. Once the limited number of Charity Fund entries are sold, the race will be officially sold out and registration for that distance will be closed.
