All administrative requirements, including registration, must be completed online through the designated platform as there is no option for on-site registration.

Participants can collect their race packets at the park starting 30 minutes before the event begins. Parking is available at a designated location within walking distance of the start and finish lines. The event includes a fixed course time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes for all distances.
