Expo/Bib pick up
In-person participants are invited to pick up their items at the PDR Pick Up Party Presented by Brooks Running. Dates and locations will be announced soon. In-person participants must pick up at the Pick Up Party unless they have paid for race day pick up during registration. We do not offer bib shipping, but we do offer Race morning pick-up for an additional fee (see Products). Race morning pick up must be purchased ahead of time. We do not offer walk-up race day pick up without prior purchase.
Bibs, shirts, and medals for virtual participants will be shipped directly to them, and shipping is included in the registration fee.
