2020 Virtual Greenbrier River Trail Marathon and Half Marathon

It is with deep sadness that I have to inform you that the 2020 GRT Marathon and Half Marathon will be canceled as we did not receive the necessary approvals to move forward.  We, and many of you, were holding out hope that we would be able to push forward and have our in-person event despite the current pandemic.  We have been discussing with other race directors / officials, some of whom are still putting on races, monitoring state guidelines, and coming up with plans on how to make our event as safe as possible during these times.  Believe me, we have considered as many options as we could in all aspects of our race and think that we could make the race itself as safe as it could be.  However, with the concern for all of you, our participants, your family and friends, and our small community that has provided so much support to our race, regrettably we will not be having our in-person event this year.  

For everyone that is currently registered, you will have five options:
1) Move to the "Semi-Virtual" Event (Run on the Race Course; Eligible for Awards)
2) Move to "Your Own Course" Virtual Race (Run on your own course) 
3) Deferral to 2021 (Oct 3, 2021)
4) Donate my Registration Fee to the GRTA
5) Refund (Minus Processing Fees)

Again, thank you all for your continued support and our deepest sympathies for having to add to the list of races that are having to cancel this year.  We hope that we can get this virus under control and come back in 2021 for an amazing year!
