Registered runners/walkers will get a medal, t-shirt, and some giveaways from our sponsors. We're excited to work with our local and national sponsors for this event!
Packet Pick Up
Packet pick up will be held on Tuesday, June 2nd from 2pm to 7pm at our Westhampton store - located at 5600 Patterson Avenue, Richmond VA 23226.
There will be race day pickup beginning 4:30p until 5:45pm. Please find the tent near 3101 Wharf Street (near starting line) for packet pick up.
Parking
Parking is located on the adjacent streets & parking lots near Rockett's Landing. Fleet Feet was made aware of the recent purchase of Stone Brewing, so parking will not longer be available as of April 23rd. We will do our best to keep all participants updated, and will give a more formal plan once something is established.
We apologize for the change, however we are doing our best to form an alternative plan for both parking and the post race.
