Rules and Regulations:
- Participants must register for each race individually to be eligible for either medal. Use the same email address to register for all three races. Registering for one race does not automatically register you for the other races.
- Medals will be awarded on a first registered, first awarded basis, so register early! You will only be considered awarded a medal once you register for all 3 races. Due to supply chain issues, we must order medals EXTRA early, so Triple Crown medals are limited to 200 participants in each category... register early to guarantee your medal!
- We want to see you race in person as much as possible! For 2023, we require that 2 of your 3 races be in person.
- We prefer that you pick up your medal in person at the Star City Half Marathon or arrange for a front porch pickup, but if you need your medal mailed to you, contact us and we'll mail it for a small fee.
