The run is described as a smaller, private group event with a cap on participants per wave. All paces and ages are welcome, and participants can run or walk. There is no on-course timing equipment; participants may optionally track their own time with an app and submit it online.
Race swag, including a running t-shirt, finisher's medal, and towel or giveaway, is shipped directly to a U.S. mailing address. A race bib is provided on the day of the event. Participants are invited to join local running or walk clubs associated with the organizer. There is also an optional charity fundraising initiative where a donation is made for every mile logged after the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
