Race Day
· What time should I get there on race day?
Please plan on arriving at least 45 minutes before the start of your race to give you enough time to park and walk to the starting area.
· My child is racing in the 1 mile, can I run with them?
Yes, you may run with your child if you yourself are registered for the same race. Infants being pushed in strollers do not need to be registered, but the parent does.
· Are there other events happening before or after the race?
There will be a costume contest at 9:30 on the steps of Boise High. After you finish, enjoy a complimentary warm cup of soup from Panera Bread and a bagel from Blue Sky Bagels and head to the Boise High Cafeteria for awards.
· Will anyone be taking professional photos?
Idaho Sports Pics will be at the race taking pictures and will have photos available for purchase after the race here: https://www.idahosportspics.com/
· Does everyone get an award?
The top finishers of each gender in both the 2 mile and 6 mile courses will receive awards. Awards will start as soon as we have the results available, usually around 11 am in the Boise High Cafeteria. Overall winners, costume contest winners, and raffle winners receive holiday floral arrangements courtesy of Hillcrest Floral!
· Does my race entry include a shirt or do I have to pay extra?
Everyone participating in the YMCA Christmas Run will receive a t-shirt. The first 1,000 people to pick up their packets will also receive Christmas Run Gloves!
· Where do I get my shirt?
You will get your shirt at packet pickup.
