Race kit & beer pickup: PICKUP is Friday, September 22nd from 4-8PM at Refined Fool, 1326 London Rd. in Sarnia. For out-of-towners and anyone unable to make the pickup on Friday evening, you can pickup the morning of the race. However, please arrive by 9:30 so that we aren't causing congestion in the corrals. Registered runners/walkers will receive an email with instructions about pickup and everything else you need to know to participate. (Check your spam folder! Follow the event on Facebook to make sure you don't miss any updates).
T-Shirts: This year in lieu of shirts we have opted for awesome beer steins (for the first 125 registrants). We will have a limited # of Trail & Ale T-shirts available for purchase on-site on race day.
