Race Day
We recommend picking up your packet in advance at the above locations; however, if you are unable to race day packet pickup will be available near the starting line from 7:00am - 7:45 am.
In order to care and prepare the chimps, the sanctuary will not be open for vehicle parking until 7am. Some traffic is expected and our team will work diligently to park everyone quickly, efficiently, and safely. For this reason, all participants are strongly encouraged to pick up their race day materials in advance of race day.
