👕 Participant Items

AGAIN THIS YEAR! Our race participant item is being upgraded from cotton to a tech shirt. Because this comes with an additional cost and other increased costs we’ve decided to make it an add-on. This means, you can register for the race for the same low price (free for Sub5 members) but if you want the shirt it is an additional $10. Yes the shirt costs Sub5 more than $10 so this is a deal! Details are in the registration.
