Charity, swag and on-site details

The event partners with Community Table, a local food bank. Participants can donate online with registration and there will be an in-person food drive on race day. Bringing five items to the food drive enters a participant into a raffle; urgently needed items include canned fruit, peanut butter, toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, lotion, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and bar soap. Event swag includes a short-sleeved tee (2025 design pictured); sizes are offered during online registration, some sizes may sell out, and there is a $5 credit option for choosing no shirt. Size swaps or extra swag purchases may be available at the registration tent on race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
