Participants registered by August 1 will be guaranteed a t-shirt on race day.  Shirts will not be reordered after the race.

Food, beverages, and LIVE music will be provided after the race. All registered participants will be eligible for door prize drawings - you must be present to win.

Prior to the race we will have bus transportation beginning at the Public Beach in Gulf Shores and running to the Main Beach Pavilion – where it will pick up more riders – and take them on to the first relay station and the Starting line. 

During the race the buses will pick up runners at the two relay points and deliver them to the finish line, or the Main State Park Beach Pavilion, whichever they prefer

After the race, the buses at the finish line will deliver runners to the Main State Park Beach Pavilion (the secondary parking area) only – and not go to the starting line.   

All Relay Participant Parking should be staged at the Main Beach Pavilion of the Alabama State Park or the Gulf Shores Public Beach parking lot. 

Suggested Relay Parking Scenario 

1. Runner Three drops off Runners One and Two

2. Runner Three parks in the State Park Main Beach Pavilion lot, where the third relay leg begins

3. Runner Two ends his/her relay leg at the State Park Main Beach Pavilion, takes the car and picks up Runner One

4. Both meet Runner Three at the public beach parking inGulfShores, adjacent to the finish line
