Please note: Unlike previous years, your registration time has no bearing on your start line seeding order. All Masters and Juniors classes will have a short time trial for seeding purposes the day before their championship race. There is no separate entry fee for the time trial — all registrants in classes that have a time trial will be automatically given a start time.

Save time and money by registering early! On-site registration and packet pick-up will open on Tuesday, December 7. On-site registration must be completed the day before your race. There is no day-of registration!
