Hey there, amazing runners! Just a quick heads-up for those deciding to wait and register late: we'll do our best, but we can't guarantee your preferred shirt size due to the high demand. Also, your finisher's medal might be slightly different from the others but just as awesome. We're all about ensuring everyone has a great time, no matter when you sign up. Can't wait to see you at the starting line!
