The event has a participant capacity of 800 and registration is accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Adult entry fees follow a tiered schedule: $20 (Jan 1–May 15), $30 (May 16–June 30), and $40 (July 1 onward). Youth entries (ages 18 and under) are free for 2026 YAF races.
Packet pickup and in-person registration are available on the days before the event at Grandma’s Marathon office and at the Park Point Beach House. The Park Point Seagull Chase kids’ races are free and open to children ages 14 and under; kids are grouped by age into heats and sign in on site.
Awards are given to overall winners in competitive and masters heats and to top finishers in age divisions.

The race offers a sustainability option to skip the shirt and instead plant a native tree through a partnership with Let’s Plant Trees.
