Kids relay teams cost $12.00 per runner, totaling $36.00 for a team of three, and include a goodie bag, certificates, and a relay completion medal.
Timing and Awards
The event uses a fully automated timing system with a rolling start. Race times and results are posted online shortly after the race. Awards include a $75 cash prize for the top overall male and female runners, medals for first-place finishers in each age category, and a finisher award for every participant who completes the course.
