PLEASE NOTE
The guidelines regarding the reopening of Ontario, and to safely manage events in Kingston remain fluid, and are subject to change. Please be sure to check your emails regularly prior to the event for updates.

Obtaining approval on permits, from different agencies, are required to host an in-person running event. We must also follow directives from Kingston Public Health. If the in-person races are not permitted to move ahead as planned, for any reason, all participants will be moved to the virtual option.

This event will not be issuing refunds or deferals of any kind. Many of the costs of putting on a race are incurred well before the event. Registration fees directly cover these costs.

We appreciate your understanding of why we are not able to accommodate refunds, and appreciate your support.

Please see KRRA website for further information. Be sure to check back often for updates. Also watch for emails coming from Trackie.

Thank you for participating!
