How to Become VIP
Races are much more fun when shared with your friends! For a team to qualify for the VIP experience, it needs to have a minimum of 25 registered athletes (5K or half marathon) by October 4th at 11:59PM. VIP status gets you a semi-private area to decorate and/or stash your stuff pre-race and a place to hang out after.
You can create your team or add yourself to a team during registration. If you are not sure if your team has already been created, use the TEAMS tab to find out.
Additionally, teams of 25+ registered athletes (5K or half marathon) will each receive a winter hat during bib pick up. All runners that qualify for a hat must be registered for that team by 10/4/24 as well.
THE SWAG
2024 Cambridge Half Marathon athletes will get a quarter-zip pullover. 2024 color: Navy
2024 5K participants will get a long sleeve technical shirt. 2024 color: TBD
