About the race
This is a smaller, private group run with a cap per wave, and all paces and ages (under 18 with a guardian) are welcome, whether you run or walk.
There is no equipment or setup needed. This is a pure run with our coordinators supporting you in a warm, stress-free setting.

Timing options
- Timing is optional: track your time on an app (Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, etc.) and submit it with our easy form to be posted online.
- Or ask our coordinators to help keep track of your time.
- No timing chips are used.
Packet pickup and bibs
There is no packet pickup. Swag is shipped directly to your address, so provide your full, correct US mailing address including apartment number and check the spelling.
- Race bibs are provided on race day.
When you will get your swag
You will get your shirt at your mailing address the week of your race. For last-minute registrations (signing up 2 weeks before the race), it takes time to ship your shirt, so it will likely arrive after the run. You can wear any shirt you find appropriate to run the race.
Race updates
We will email you a final update the Wednesday before the race with final details and course maps.

Waves are filled on a first come, first served basis. Email us your desired wave time at [email protected].
