Do I need a racing bib to run?
Yes, you will need a bib to run since it includes a timed chip which records and ranks your race finish.
Can I pick up my racing bib before the event?
Your number will be mailed to your address if you register on or before Wednesday, May 22nd. After that date, bibs can be claimed at the Pre-Registration tent on the day of the event. The bibs can also be picked up during the week prior to the event when t-shirts are distributed in the office.
Please contact Diana Stuckey (darcure@thevaleriefund.org) if you misplace or do not receive your bib number.
Can I give my bib to someone else?
Runner registration cannot be transferred to another individual because the racing bib generates timed results and ranking for the original registrant. If you are unable to attend the run, please discard the bib and contact Diana to let her know it will go unused and they will notify our Race Director.
Is the race course certified?
Yes, the course is certified and the race is sanctioned by the USATF. The course will be closed to traffic and police and volunteers will ensure the runners' safety and that all directions are followed.
How do I learn my official time in the race?
Immediately following the race, you can view race results on your phone: http://bestrace.com/mobile/thevaleriefund/ or at the JAG Physical Therapy tent in the park.
Later, the results can also be found on the home page of the walk website: www.thevaleriefund.org/Walk2024
THE WALK IS NOT A TIMED EVENT and may be done at your own leisurely pace.
