Writing a race review is as easy as working up a sweat in July 😅 Think about what makes that race unique or what you wish you’d known before you ran it. Keep in mind, the more thoughtful and detailed your review, the more helpful it will be to other runners. And the more races you review, the more entries you’ll earn to increase your odds of winning.
For you overachieving Lunatics who happen to be caught up on your reviews for races run since Jan 1, 2023, we’ve got your back! Simply email us with “All caught up” as the subject line, and we’ll credit you for up to ten of those reviews.
Feel free to contact us with any questions. Good luck and thanks for sharing your race-day experiences on RaceRaves, the premier online race finder & reviews community for runners and endurance athletes!
HOW IT WORKS: To qualify for and be automatically entered into our random drawing, post a new review (= one entry) for a timed, in-person race between Wednesday, July 24, 2024 and 11:59pm PDT on Sunday, August 18, 2024. Every review submitted within this qualifying timeframe will then count as one (1) additional entry into the drawing (maximum ten entries). To ensure relevance, only reviews for timed, in-person races run since January 1, 2023 are eligible for the drawing.
On or around August 19, 2024, RaceRaves will randomly select the prize winners and notify them by email. If a winner fails to respond and claim their prize within a week of being emailed, then another winner will be randomly chosen and secure all the glory and spoils therein. Previous RaceRaves giveaway winners are not eligible again for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days from the closing date of their winning giveaway period. Free shipping of prize merchandise applies to addresses in the U.S.; addresses outside the U.S. will be charged the cost of USPS Air Mail.
Every eligible race review counts as an entry — positive, negative or indifferent. For other runners looking to discover new races and for race directors looking to improve their events, the most important elements of any review are fairness and honesty. Please keep in mind, the more thoughtful & detailed your review, the more helpful it will be to other runners. Naturally your odds of winning depend on the number of entries received.
