Participant Gifts and Race Swag!
All race finishers will receive an awesome participation medal with the top three participants in each age division receiving an award in recognition for their accomplishments. All racers who register prior to 2 weeks before race day will get a shirt and race swag. Graniteman works very hard to provide our participants with the highest quality race day gifts and swag possible.
GraniteKids Fun Run!
One thing is for sure, Graniteman knows how to have some fun, and we will do just that during the GraniteKids Fun Run! The kids will run about 1 mile on a carefully chosen and well controlled route through the park. The course map for this run will be available as soon as we get approval from the City to use our preferred route.
There will be kids activites at the expo, a costume contest, and fun stuff to see and do, so get those kids out and have some fun!
