What To Know Before You Register

We have updated our race website! Our new website provider makes registration easy, and offers a wide array of features.

If you are a returning race participant, you will need to set up a new account, as your username and password from previous years is no longer valid. If you are a new race participant, you will need to set up an account as well. To register, click the Register Now! button at the top of the page.

You will be provided a brief walkthrough after registration is complete.  This walkthrough will show you the basic features that are associated with your fundraising profile.  If you complete the walkthrough, you will be awarded a virtual badge, which can then be displayed on your personal fundraising page.  Other badges can be earned for accomplishing different tasks.  

Thank you for your patience, and if you have any questions you may contact
the Events Coordinator Shelby Johnson, at 779.220.9305 or at sjohnson@hpclinic.org.
