    We do not offer refunds or transfers.

    There is no mailing of awards or shirts. You MUST pick up your award before you leave. If you do not, we cannot hold/store awards and it will likely be given to a race day entry or someone else. It is simply too much to hold/store & inventory the awards.

    Note: If you are registered for this race and you registered in time to choose a t-shirt BUT you are unable to run for whatever reason, you will NEED TO CONTACT us BEFORE RACE DAY and let us know if you'd like us to hold on to your reserved shirt for you to pick up at a future Scoogie Event. If you do not do this, we cannot hold your shirt and it will be given to someone that registered after the deadline. We cannot mail shirts!

    Packet Pick details will be emailed 5 days before this event.

    Runners may pick up their packets on race morning but it is advised that they pick them up at packet pick up to avoid lines on race day.

    If you have ANY questions at all...please do not hesitate to email Scoogie at [email protected]
