Race features and participant provisions include a finisher medal for participants and the possibility of a technical t-shirt and sponsor items, with supplies limited. Friends and family may register at packet pick up, though shirts cannot be guaranteed for day-of registrations.
Packet pick up and day-of registration are available at local Fleet Feet locations and at the Pufferbelly Trailhead on the event date. A Brooks representative will offer demo shoes for participants to try.
After the run there will be music, games, food, and cornhole. The organizer will run a same-day social media contest awarding a single participant a prize.
