Absolutely! We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.

Also, if you intend on running, but later change your mind and would like to do either of these options, that's ok too! If you are definitely going to have us ship your packet and run virtually though, we do recommend you follow the instructions below:
