Raptor Chapter Ugly Sweater 5K Run/Walk

Good Morning All,

Due to increased COVID restrictions, especially those imposed on Langley Air Force Base members, we are switching to a virtual format.  The vast majority of our volunteers were from Langley AFB as this is event is sponsored by the Air Force Sergeants Association (AFSA) in association with the Peninsula Track Club  

Our new race format:
- Race participants can run the course anytime from 12 Dec to to 20 Dec.  Once I convert the race site to the virtual format there will be a time reporting option you can use or you can email your time to Ptcvirtualmarathon@gmail.com This will still count a virtual grand prix event.  

- Anyone who signed up before 1 Dec, you are guaranteed the following:  
The long sleeved shirt in the size you ordered
A finisher medal
A map of the course
complimentary water bottle

- Anyone who signed up after 1 Dec is in a first come first serve situation.  We currently have 63 runners signed up.  35 of those runners who signed up before 1 Dec are guaranteed a t-shirt and finisher medal.  We have an additional 20 long sleeve t-shirts and 15 finisher medals.  A map of the course will be provided to all participants.     

- Saturday 12 Dec we will have a table set up at pavilion #2 by the ranger station for everyone to pick up their gear.  Drive into the into the park entrance where the Christmas lights show is set up and follow the signs for the station.  It is about a quarter mile down the road on the left.  There is a large parking lot there with multiple pavilions.    
8:00 AM - 9:30 AM - Pickup for pre-1 Dec sign up participants
9:30 AM - 11:00 AM Pickup for first come first serve participants
We are spreading it out like this to avoid everyone coming at once.  Please wear a mask when you come to pick up your gear. 

I turned on the option to request a refund from now until 11:59 PM Saturday night.  Please realize if you show up and claim a shirt, we will no longer honor a refund at that point.       

Thank you for your patience and understanding.  I apologize that this change had to be made so last minute.  I'm working on change the race format now.  I wanted to get this message out first.
