Registration and Changes

Participants will have until 2 weeks prior to the race to change their shirt (giveaway) size on RunSignUp. You can find out how to update it online here.
If it is within two weeks of the race, we allow every participant the opportunity to pick up the shirt size they’ve ordered during registration. If you’d like to exchange your shirt size, please bring your unworn shirt to the Registration tent after the event concludes. If your size is available, we are more than happy to exchange it for you.
Yes! Participants will have until 2 weeks prior to the race to gift their registration to another person. Please note that both the initial transfer and completed registration by the party being gifted the registration must be completed prior to this deadline. There is a $9.95 charge (plus any applicable taxes and fees) to do this, which will be applied to the person gifting their registration. Any add-ons will also be gifted along with the registration.

Yes! Parents are welcome to run alongside their child even if they are not registered for the Kids & Family 1K or another event. Please note that only registered participants will receive a bib, shirt, and medal.
For Adaptive Athletes with guides in distances of 5K or greater, the guide MUST register for the same event using the link included with the athlete's registration, selecting the "GUIDE" version of the event, and entering the athlete's name as the person they will be guiding.
Complimentary guide registrations do not include a chip-timed result, participant shirt, or finisher medal. Guides who would like to receive these items may add them during registration for a discounted rate. Guides are not eligible for overall or age group awards.
Complimentary guide entries are limited to one guide per Adaptive Athlete unless otherwise approved by race management. Guides are expected to remain with and support their athlete throughout the event. While Adaptive Athletes are welcome to register for distances less than 5K, complimentary guide registration and the potential for separate Adaptive Athlete divisions and awards are only available for distances of 5K or greater.
If you need to transfer your guide registration to another individual, please contact support@hrcra.com and include the event name, the first name, last name and email associated with your registration, and the first name, last name, and email of the individual the registration should be transferred to in the communication. Please ensure the subject line contains the phrase 'Guide Transfer' and the event name.
For groups registering 5 or more people at once, we offer a $5 discount per registrant for all races of 5K or greater. This multi-person discount is automatically applied during the registration process once 5 or more registrants are added.
Please Note: Since registrations for races shorter than a 5K do not count towards the multi-person discount, any registrations for such races will need to be completed separately in order for RunSignUp to apply the discount. Discounts cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts.

Policies and Extras

We do not offer refunds. However, Race Insurance is available through RunSignUp at the time of registration. This optional coverage allows you to request a refund directly through RunSignUp if you’re unable to attend. Please note: Race Insurance must be purchased during registration and cannot be added afterward, as it is a third-party service.
View the full refund policy under Resources -> Refund Policy and see other FAQ questions for potential options to transfer your registration to another individual or defer to the next year.
An Adaptive Athlete uses adaptive equipment such as a wheeler or has a mobility, visual, or hearing impairment that necessitates a guide running or cycling alongside them. For distances of 5K or greater, you will be able to designate yourself as an Adaptive Athlete during the registration process and receive information for registering a guide, if applicable. We often will have Adaptive Athletes start races a few minutes earlier than other participants. Make sure to check the schedule and pay attention to announcements on race day for any adjusted start times!
The addition of separate divisions and overall awards for Adaptive Athletes participating in distances of 5K or greater will be determined based on participation levels.
Sometimes, there are weather events beyond our control. But if there is a threat of more severe weather, we will have two 30-minute delays. After two delays, if race officials determine the course is unsafe because of weather conditions, race officials may cancel, delay, or change the event in case of extreme weather or other conditions that may affect the safety and health of participants. This will be communicated via email, social, and text messages.
