Yes, but.

Someone else may pick up your packet for you, but you must have already completed and signed your waiver in advance. Without a signed waiver on file, packets cannot be released.

If you’re unable to sign ahead of time, you can still pick up your packet yourself on race morning.

Packet pickup takes place during the week leading up to race day, with race-morning pickup for anyone who misses it. See the official Race Day page for the current pickup dates, hours and location. The pickup venue is separate from the race start and finish location.

Race-day registration is TBD.
If needed, participants may be able to register online on race day, but there is no guarantee that spots will be available. Once the race reaches capacity, registration will close.

The race start and finish location is listed on the official Race Day page, which has the current address and directions. Packet pickup has a separate location; please check the pickup details on that page before travelling.

There is no official gear check 🎒
