Where to stay?
We recommend the Lodge at 5600. The Beeline Guest House is also an excellent option. There are also many other cabin rentals in the Pine area. Check www.vrbo.com and www.airbnb.com
Another popular option is camping in the Tonto National Forest adjacent to the event parking/check-in area. See our Event Details page for more information.
Was my registration successful?
If you received a confirmation email you are registered. If you opted in on the pre-race registration list during registration your name should be listed on our Runner and Results page. If not, try registering again (your credit card should not have been charged). If all else fails contact the race director.
During registration I'm given the option: "Include me in your public pre-race registration list." What does this mean?
The public registration list is the list of current registered runners who have elected to be included in the list. This list is on our registration company’s (Raceresults) server and is accessible via our Runners and Results page. It includes the runner’s name, city & country, race registered in and age group.
If I can't run in the race can I get a refund?
Our policy is no refunds. However, you can defer for 1 year or transfer your registration to another person.
To transfer use your personal change link that was included in your registration confirmation email and enter the new runner’s registration information. If you no longer have the change link contact the race director.
If you would like to defer for one year please contact the race director. You will be given a credit in the form of a voucher that will be valid for the following year’s race. The value of the credit will be the full fees you paid during registration less any donation you made during registration.
Any change or deferment must be made no later than the Wednesday before the race.
Can I change my registration (race to run, contact info, purchase extra breakfasts/dinners, etc.)?
Yes. Use your personal change link that was included in your registration confirmation email and enter the new information. If you no longer have the change link contact the race director. If the changes you make will result in additional cost you will pay for them when you complete the changes. If the changes result in a refund being due we will process the refund after you complete the changes and send you an email confirmation of the refund. Refunds may take a few days since it is not an automated process. Note that we only refund for extras purchased (dinner, breakfast, visor) and not due to change in the race you will run. All changes must be completed on or before the Wednesday before the race.
Do you have any advice for running on mountain trails?
Yes, read this and run like an elk!
