How do I attend this event?
Our Deerfield Brewery will be closed to the public during this event. All runners, spectators, and volunteers regardless of age must have a wristband in order to enter this event.
We will have two wristband colors, one for our guests who are 21+ and one for guests under 21. Please be sure to bring valid and current proof of identification if you intend to consume alcoholic beverages.
If a runner picks up their bib in person during the allotted bib pick up times, they will be provided with a wristband that verifies they have checked in for the event. This wristband must be worn on race day to attend the after race event.
If a runner is unable to pick up their bib in person, we will use their bib as proof of purchase and assist in providing a wristband on race day.
Runners will receive a QR code from Tixr via email to share with your spectator. This QR code will be scanned at our check in area at the brewery on race day to confirm proof of purchase so that we can provide a wristband. Please note that each QR code can only be scanned once.
I am bringing gear with me on race day. Will there be a gear check?
Runners will be provided with a bag during bib pick up that can be used for gear check. Please note, any items that runners wish to check must fit in this bag.
Gear Check will be available to runners in a designated location inside the brewery on race day. Gear will be stored in sections based on Bib Number.
