Runners Shirts

In an effort to keep our race green and reduce waste, we have created registrations to allow registrants to opt out of receiving a finisher's race shirt. Cut off date to register for a race with a finisher race shirt included is July 9, 2024. Any leftover race shirts can be purchased after the race at the finish line area for $15 (we do not order extras, so only unclaimed shirts will be available for purchase; not all sizes are guaranteed to be available). All race shirts not picked up on race day become property of Urban Wildland Half Marathon and 5K. 

Personal Belongings: Lockers

Lockers are available for use inside the arena. The lockers are not supervised, but runners may bring their own padlock.

Description
