Afterwards, we will have our picnic and awards.

Everyone will receive points each week based on the finish order in their own age group.

Adult racers will compete in the longer event in these age groups:

18-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80+

The (very) small fee for each event is as follows:

Adults: $5.00 per event; $25 all 6 events

That’s all it costs! And the fees serve to fund the awards and picnic!
