Registration is available online through RunSignUp or by mail with a completed entry form and payment to Seashore Striders. Fee tiers are listed for early bird, pre, and race-day registration, and registrations received by June 1 are guaranteed a t-shirt while supplies last. Race-day registration is offered at an additional fee. The event benefits a scholarship for a Cape Henlopen High School senior on the track and cross-country team.
A separate 5K walk division is included for the summer series; walkers who follow USATF-style walking guidelines may qualify for series awards. Post-race awards are presented for overall and masters winners and for age-group placings, with the ceremony held within about 20 minutes after the final finisher.
