​​

Q: How much does this cost?

A: $100.

​

Q: What's the catch?

A: You won't receive any race giveaways of shirts, glasses, etc. You will still be eligible for winner prizes.

​

Q: Even stickers?!

A: You can still take stickers. We're not monsters.

​

Q: Is there any special swag that Hardscrabble Pass holders get? Maybe a specially designed bib with my name on it or a physical pass I can flash at registration?

A: No. You will get a boring bib and no more than two safety pins.

​

Q: How does this affect the industry-leading generosity of your normal refund and deferral policies?

There will be no refunds or deferrals, but you can still switch distances.

​

Q: This all sounds too good to be true! How do I sign up?

A: Contact us via email or in person to receive a paper registration form and waiver.​
