How it Works aka the "Rules"

• You can sign up for Four Season Challenge Separately - Registration coming soon
• You must complete all 4 events in the Challenge that you register for to be eligible for medals.  For example, you must complete all four half marathons if you sign up for the half marathon challenge
• You must sign up for each of the other races in the challenge at your leisure.  This way you can budget your entry fees to the other events.  But you must be signed up for all events by January 3rd so we know how many medals to get.  There is not deviation to this date.
• Those entered in the Winter Warrior Relay ARE NOT eligible for Four Season Challenge Series nor awards.
• In other words, by getting the Four Season Challenge entered into the Challenge NOT the respective races in the challenge.  You need to do that on your own when registrations open and your budget allows, but it must be by January 3rd.  No deviation to that date.
• Please register under the same name for each race.  Otherwise we will not know to designate you as 4SC for the events.
• The 4SC offer ends January 8TH at 5:45PM.  Due to this, so we can get all the medals & shirts ordered, they will not be available at Winter Warrior.  BUT we will ship the Winter Warrior one to you when they arrive to the address used to register for Four Season Challenge.  This is the only one we will ship.  All others will be picked up at the awards table after the other 3 events. This mailing typically occurs early to mid May.
• The other three medals will be available at the awards table after Flower City, Shoreline and Rochester.  We will not mail these medals for the In Person
• No Refunds/Transfers nor Deferrals

Friday, January 8th from 10am-6pm at  Fleet Feet @ The Armory location:
155 Culver Road, Rochester, NY  14620

We highly advise everyone to go to Packet Pickup.  You may pickup for others as well.  There will be day of packet pickup at the race site from 8:45AM-9:45AM.  Day of packet pickup will close at 9:45AM

Each Relay Team member will receive a bib.  None of these bibs will have the timing chip attached to it.  Your team will also receive ONE timing bib.  This timing bib will be attached to a belt and will have a timing chip attached to the back.  This belt will have to be passed & worn by each member of the team while running their respective legs.  For example, if you are running “Leg 1”, you will wear the belt with the timing bib and after you are done with your leg, you will then pass it to your team member who is running “Leg 2”, etc.  Whoever is running the final leg needs to be wearing this belt to be sure that your team time registers at the finish line.  The race belts must be handed in at the Finish Line.

The race begins at 10AM for all events

You must start your final lap at 12:30PM.  The Quarter Marathoners need to be done by 12:30PM. The finish line closes at 1:30PM Sharp.
