Sure! Just make sure that they have a copy of the confirmation email you were sent when you registered as well as a photocopy, or digital picture will work.
6-I am coming in from out of town and can’t make it to the bib pick-up, how can I get my bib?
If athletes cannot pick up their bib at the Expo, we will be offering a race morning pick-up option. We cannot guarantee accommodation for anyone who cannot get their bib prior to race day. Note that items for virtual participants will be automatically shipped. For more info contact: jose@pgb1.org

If you have any questions, please email us @ jose@pgb1.org
12-Are strollers or dogs allowed?
Due to the nature of the course and for the safety of all race participants, strollers, and SERVICE K9 with all current documentation are permitted. We aim to make the start and finish area as family-friendly as possible.
13-How do I get to the start on race morning?
The start and finish are at the Aguadilla Parterre.
14-I can’t take public transportation to the race, where can I park?
Parking is very limited for the PGBR4H near the Start and Finish areas. Due to the road closures and the extended no parking areas, we suggest looking for street parking and avoiding areas close to the start and finish.
15-Is the race walker friendly?
The PGBR4H is a run.walk.roll family-friendly race. Athletes are welcome to walk part or all of the 5k. Those who are unable to run will be asked to move to the right side of the course to allow those running a clear path.
16-Will there be pace groups?
No!
17-Where can family and friends watch?
Anywhere! The PGBR4H course goes through and around with a Start and Finish that are the same…perfect for catching your athlete at multiple locations. Keep in mind that it runs within dense locations, so moving around on foot is usually the best/only way to do it. We also have water stations on the course that always need additional volunteers. Email us if you are interested in helping out!
