Run the race in person on Nov. 23 or virtually between Nov. 23-29. We have two registration options for you and your family. Those who participate in the virtual race will have the option to have their items shipped to them (participants will pay the shipping fee) or pick up your race add-ons at our Packet Pick-Up on Friday, Nov. 22. 

Regardless of what race option you choose, you can pick up your SWAG at our Packet Pick-Up on Nov. 22 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the WMU Student Recreation Center - Indoor Tennis Courts.
