How to Save Money On Our Races

We don't have "sales" or offer promo codes for our races, but there are still ways to save money. 

1. Register Early: Don't wait to register. If you think you want to run, sign up right away to lock in the very best pricing. Don't worry, you're protected by our ridiculously generous (and unique) refund/transfer/deferment policy. Once you've registered for the race, start locking down your travel details. The further in advance you set up your flights/hotels/etc. the more money you'll save.

2. Register as a Team: Running is funnest with friends. Register as a team to save $10 per person (maximum of 12 people to a team). Learn more about teams.

3. Help Out: We always need people to help run expo booths, aide stations, help run social media accounts, etc. and we provide generous compensation in the form of free race entries, t-shirts, and more. Take a look at the following programs and select one that's right for you: 

4. Military Discount: Okay, this one isn't available for everyone, but we give members of the military and their families special treatment including discounted registration fees and some additional refund/transfer/deferment options. Learn more about our special military programs.

    I don’t see a volunteer section for great smoky mountains. And what are the reward options for various volunteer jobs?

    I seen this on Facebook “Sign up before the next price jump (Aug. 5th, 11:59pm) to save $20 on each registration and another $10 if you join a team! (Race day is Oct. 20th.)” i registered a team
    a team and we did not received the $10 off. How can i get my team to get that discount? We are a Run Club out of the Los Angeles. Team name: VRLA aka Valleyrunners LA.

      Hi Sonia – Sorry for the confusion – the team discounts are given the week of the race as long as you have the required six runners.

    I am a legacy runner interested in volunteering to earn a $100 discount for next year’s race. Unfortunately there are no positions available. Is there a way that I can be contacted in case a volunteer is unable to fulfill their duty and I may take their place? Thank you so much for your time and consideration. 951-500-7088

      Hi Michel – Early bird registration is $109. We mistakenly had the incorrect price of $99 on the website the morning registration opened but fixed it quickly. Sorry for the confusion.

    Hi,
    I’m wondering if you offer discounts or have a catagory for runners with disabilities?
    Pretty much like for marathons and Triathlons?
    Thanks so much!
