2020 Event Cancelled Due to COVID-19
Due to COVID-19, this race was cancelled as of June 1, 2020. While we are beyond bummed that we cannot gather at the start line together this fall, we look forward to being able to return in fall of 2021! In the meantime, we encourage you to keep the fall tradition alive by joining us for our ever-popular Virtual Run! Get the details here.
If you signed up for this event prior to the cancellation, you should have received an email outlining options for transferring your registration or deferring to a future year. The transfer deadline for the Virtual Run has passed, which means you will automatically be deferred and be able to use your registration in 2021 or 2022. Once we launch registration in late winter, we will email you how to go about redeeming your registration credit! In the meantime, if you have any questions, please email us: info@sourfishevents.com
Stay active, stay healthy, and we will see you all next fall!
