Switch Your Distance

After 7/31, runners wishing to change their race distance have the following options:

​

Your personalized bib, with your name, streak, phrase, chip, and distance, has been ordered and is on its way. If you’d like to drop down in distance, you can drop down on race day. The timing mats will detect what you ran and you will be an official finisher of that distance. There is no need to notify us in advance. Be sure to follow the route for your chosen distance (volunteers may see your bib and try to redirect you) and tell the finish line volunteers what you ran so you receive the appropriate finisher medal. When you pick up your bib, you can try to swap it for a new one at packet pickup on Friday or Saturday before the race. There may be extras available.

 

If you’d like to increase your distance, you can try to upgrade your distance when you pick up your bib at the expo on Friday or Saturday. Upgrades will be based on bib availability. A fee equal to the race price difference will be due if you decide to upgrade.

Deferral

Race Deferral

Deferral Deadline is 11:59 p.m. Central Time on 7/31. After this date, runners may switch to virtual (by 9/14) to keep their multi-year endurance streak going.

There is a $30 Deferral Fee.

Runner's can defer to one of the following: 

  • Limited to the first 50 deferral requests. 

  • Deferring will break your Endurance streak. Changing to a Virtual Race will keep your streak going.

  • Deferring will break your Multi-Race Medal qualification. Selecting the virtual option will maintain your eligibility.

  • Charity registrations are not eligible for deferral.
