An early start at 7:30 am will be offered for 25k and 50k runners who feel that they will need more time to complete the race.

If you register after April 1, you won't get a race shirt. Sorry for any inconvenience, but we need to make sure our local vendor has enough time to get the shirts ready for race day.
