Registration and Packet Pickup
MCRRC members: Register for free on race day. If you already have a club-issued bib and timing chip, wear them. Otherwise, you can pick them up at the registration tables. (If you have not picked up your chip yet, bring a $5 deposit.)
Non-members: Register online for both the half marathon and 8K. The half marathon is $30.00 (plus service fees) and the 8K is $15 (plus service fees). You can register in person on race-day morning, but because there is no runner limit, you could be waiting in a long line. Pre-registering also means we can’t misread your handwritten entry or mistype it into the computer. We want your name spelled correctly in the results! At the race site, you will be given a bib and timing chip. The chip must be returned immediately after the race, at the finish line.
Everyone: Registration and packet pickup open at 5:30am. Try to arrive no later than 6am to help us get everyone through registration and packet pickup.
Finish
Watermelon, bananas, and other refreshments will be available at the finish. There are no awards, t-shirts, or finisher medals. You won’t need a finisher medal to remember you have done Riley’s.
On-Course Support
Half Marathon – Water, Gatorade, and ice will be provided every two to three miles along the course and at the start/finish. Gels will be available at water stop #3 (mile 6 at the Taylor School). Popsicles will be provided just after the turnaround between mile 8 and 9. (Popsicle Protocol: Just before the turnaround, yell out your flavor preference and after the turnaround, the volunteers will have it ready for you!)
8K – Water will be available on the course.
There are port-o-potties at the start/finish, but not along the course. Beware of venturing off-road – poison ivy is rampant in the forest.
