Please call or email if you registered and don't see your name - glitches do happen. Those on the waiting list must check the website to verify that they have moved up to the confirmed list.

Note: Waiting list will start at 201. Plenty of wait-listed runners move up to the run list each year because of drops, so don't hesitate to still enter. Those wait-listers who do not get to run will receive a full refund (less $6 if you register online).

Cancellation Policy
The race committee reserves the right to cancel or alter the race due to conditions outside of our control, such as weather, snowpack, fires, or other acts of nature. We will do our best to return a portion of the entry fee if the race is cancelled, but please remember that we incur a lot of costs and we are a non-profit event. Runner's safety is our priority.
