Event Details
This unique race will be organized into seeded heats. We will launch multiple heats up to 12 participants per heat. Some heats may even have a sub-heat. Why, you ask? Because we want competitive vibes, even if your speed doesn't align perfectly. We love exciting, competitive finish lines. There will be a prize for the top male and female time of the day! So, that means we need your best guess on your finish time when you sign up so we can set up the most competitive heat! We won't tell anyone, promise. If we don't receive this information, our guess won't be as good as yours... Keep an eye on your email! If you purchase an event entry, we will reach out via your email on file for all info we need from you ahead of race day. Any questions? Email us! |
