Registration has tiered fees with early rates through September 27 and standard rates through race day; youth entries under 18 have a single fee. Participants registered by October 25 are guaranteed a long sleeve performance race shirt while supplies last. All finishers in the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon receive a custom finisher medal.
