We strive to make our race welcoming and inclusive for all participants. For the purposes of prize eligibility, our event currently offers two gender categories: male and female. Non-binary participants are welcome to compete in the category they feel most comfortable with. Those who do not identify strictly as male or female may opt into the female category for prize consideration.
