As many of you are aware by now of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been closely monitoring WHO and the CDC for any updates on the situation in order to keep you safe. Up until recently, we had made provisions to continue with the run while providing free transfers to a later date (for participants who may not want to run in this season).
However, the CDC has posted another update recommending even relatively smaller groups of people to postpone or cancel the gathering. As such, we do believe it would be in the best interest for you, the participant as well as for the community for us to postpone this run entirely. We’re very sorry to have to postpone but believe this is the best decision for everyone.
In the meantime, however, you may run this race virtually via our originally planned course at your own time and pace. You may also track your time via any app (or if you need a tracker, we can even send you one free of charge). And any results can still be uploaded on our results page.
We will be monitoring and working to provide several options for a later date to run as soon as this pandemic start to get better, which we remain hopeful will improve in time. You can check back anytime and will be eligible to transfer your run to any future date we have for up to 2 years from the original run date.
