All the routes are fairly fast and flat, with some routes being faster than others. Whether they run it, or walk it, entrants are guaranteed to have a fantastic experience with routes incorporating iconic city landmarks and lively performances by local leading performing arts groups. Our sponsor activations also take the excitement to the next level on race day.”

The offer applies to Standard and Gold Package entry packages. To help simplify the process and add to the experience, there will also be a dedicated “Bulk/Company Entries” collection point at Race Pack Collection.
