The race will go on rain or shine. In the event of severe weather conditions or lightning, our race director may delay the start until safer conditions are available. In the event that you choose not to participate in the race, you can also pick up your race packet at the winery even if you are not running, or if you send an email to delores@j3timing.com so we can transfer you to the virtual wine run and ship your race packet. While we can't predict or control the weather, the one thing that we can guarantee is that there will be a 100% chance of wine at this event.

Absolutely! We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.

Also, if you intend on running, but later change your mind and would like to do either of these options, that's ok too! If you are definitely going to have us ship your packet and run virtually though, we do recommend you follow the instructions below:
