Results & Prizes

Each week everyone who races is interested into a raffle drawing for fun prizes. Last year's prize pool included regional gift certificates, locally crafted goodies, and more.

They will keep your time recorded each week you participate, but these are just for bragging rights and keeping track of your own progress. Every week, you earn a "chance" into the grand raffle happening on February 12th.

Participants who join all five races will be in the running for a "Best Turnout" prize awarded on February 12th. Participatns who join three or more races on the same equipment and distance will be in the running for a "Most Improved" prize (based on times) awarded on February 12th.
