Timing is optional and there are no timing chips; participants may track their own time with running apps or devices and submit results for posting. Swag is shipped to U.S. mailing addresses and includes a running T-shirt, a finisher medal, and a virtual training run sent before race day. An online results listing and certificate of completion are provided, and participants receive an invitation to join a local running club. There is an optional upgrade to a lightweight technical shirt for an additional five dollars.
Packet pickup is minimal because race shirts are mailed; race bibs are handed out on the day of the event.
