If you sign up early, it’s only $20 + fees. You’ll pay roughly $25. If you miss it, not to worry. They have tons of 33% off codes they’ll post on Facebook.
Parking is $15, which you can pay in advance at bib pick up. (VIP parking is more, but unnecessary.) Same day bib pick up is an additional $10. Mailed bib is an additional $25.
Really good race for beginners as it’s an easy course. You can skip any obstacles that you don’t want to do without penalty. (No burpees or time deduction.) The race also starts pretty late (9am for timed individuals and 10am for timed groups), which is fine because that means I get to sleep in. 🙂
Poor communication… I signed up almost an entire year in advance. Other than my receipt confirmation email, the ONLY other email I got from them was the afternoon before bib pick up time (which is the day before the race). There was no information on Facebook. (They were just posting discount codes to try to get more participants.)
Registration included a cheap white, cotton, gender specific T-shirt and finisher’s medal.
The live band was weak. They had zero freebies from vendors. In fact, the only vendors they had was a taco stand and $6 beer on tap.
