Description

Online registration opens on September 8, 2018 at 12:01AM!

This is Race #2 of the Kanawha Valley 5K Winter Series. 

The event will take place at The Saint Albans High School on January 1, 2019 (Race Starts at 2PM). 

The shirt order deadline is December 16th at Midnight. Due to the holidays we have to place our order a little earlier...so please get registered and order a shirt if you want one. Pre-Registration is $25; Race Day is $30

Shirts for the race are optional again this year and will be an additional charge ($5 if registering for the race). If you registered for the series and didn't add a shirt - you will have to get to packet pickup/race day early and buy one. There is no online order at this point. Supplies will be first-come, first-served. Any shirt sold at packet pickup/race day will be $10. 

Packet Pickup

We will be hosting a Packet Pickup on Friday, December 28, at The Coal River Coffee Company (64 Olde Main Plaza, St Albans, WV 25177). You may come and pick up your packet anytime between 4-7PM. You may also register if you haven't for $25 (Race Day Pricing will be $30). Any remaining shirts for sale will be $10. 

If you cannot attend the Friday evening Packet Pickup - you may pick up/register on race day starting at 12:30PM

Race Awards

This year the awards are going to be structured as a prediction run. This means you submit a time to us when you register that you think you will finish the race. Awards will go to the Top Runners who guess closest to their actual finishing time (so anyone can end up being 1st Place).

We also will have Top 3 Male and Top 3 Female Overall (Fastest Times) as well as some age groups (TBD).

Please note that NO technology will be allowed on this race - so no watches, gps devices, etc. This is to make it fair for everyone participating.

If any runner is seen wearing any type of device to keep track of their time they will be disqualified from the results and from the awards. Music is allowed but it must be on a device that does not show time, pace, distance, etc.
