PACKET PICKUP FESTIVITIES
In order to improve the "Green" attributes of our race, we are doing something new and game-changing: distributed packet pickup at different locations closer to our athletes! In addition to offering a variety of locations, there will be a variety of events including fun training runs, discounts at our Packet Pickup Partners for all the gear and supplies you need, book signings and more!
