The event offers a relaxed, non-competitive atmosphere with no official timing chips. Participants may track their own time using apps. Race bibs are provided on the event day. A swag bag is included with registration, containing a running t-shirt (shipped within the US), a finisher's medal, a finisher's towel or giveaway, and a digital training pack. Technical running shirts are available for an optional upgrade.
