VIRTUAL OPTION
We have created a virtual race option for those who would like to participate but are not local, or do not feel comfortable attending an in-person race at this time. Here's how the virtual race works:
1. Register for the virtual event, and sign up for text or e-mail notifications
2. Your race swag will be available for pickup at our pre race packet pickup sessions (see below) or can be mailed to you.
3. You'll receive a text or email (if you opt in) when the virtual race "starts" on May 1st.
4. Run your race and submit your results through the RaceJoy app, by text message or email (if you've opted in), or by heading to the results page here by May 22nd). Results update in real time as people submit their times. Be sure to take a selfie and share through the runsignup.com photo page or download your photo(s) when you report your results.
*Virtual race performances are not eligible for the overall event awards, but we'll certainly be acknowledging the winners in our post-race communication.
