FAQ
-
Can I run with a stroller or my dog?
We cannot allow strollers or dogs on either of the courses. This is for your safety and the safety of other participants and is included in the participant waiver.
-
I saw that I can Register online - can I mail a check instead?
Yes- please print and mail this form with payment. Please know that registering online makes your registration immediately compatible with the timing device- no middle man to misspell your name or misprint your age.
-
What is the time limit for the Half Marathon?
The course will be open for 4 hours. This is a fair limit given the timing officials, small group of EMS volunteers, and law enforcement vehicles who are giving their time to make this event a success.

The in-person race is sold out- what do I do?
Sign up for the virtual race! Securing a spot in the virtual race give you first priority should spots in the in-person event become available. Also- the course will be open from 8am-5pm on Saturday, April 17th, so although only in-person registrants will be allowed in Taylor Park, you will still be able to run the course and make use of the water station amenities on race day if you'd like.
