Finally! Run Different wants you to be rewarded for all the races you log year-round!

We are excited to introduce a brand new concept into the racing world! Starting in 2025, you will EARN POINTS FOR EVERY RACE YOU RUN WITH US! These points can be use to gain a FREE or DISCOUNTED ENTRY into our CHAMPIONS' RUN!

Collecting points is simple! You gain 1 point for every kilometer ran!

• 10K = 10 Points
• Half-Marathon = 21 Points

You can also earn ADDITIONAL POINTS based on how you perform on race day!

• 1st Masters (Male & Female) = 40 Points
• 1st Age Group = 10 Points
• 2nd Age Group = 5 Points
• 3rd Age Group = 3 Points

Your points accumulate all year long! And once you have enough points, you can earn either a DISCOUNTED or FREE ENTRY into our 2025 CHAMPIONS' RUN!

• 100 Points = 25% OFF 5K
• 250 Points = 50% OFF 5K or 25% OFF 10K
• 400 Points = FREE 5K or 50% OFF 10K or 25% OFF HALF

The MAN and WOMAN with the MOST POINTS at the end of 2025 will be rewarded with a FREE ENTRY IN ALL OF OUR 2026 EVENTS!!

So, lace up your shoes and get ready to RUN DIFFERENT with us!!

Wouldn't it be nice if all the hard work you put in preparing for an event netted you more than just a medal and a t-shirt? Then, this is the event for you!
