The following are important dates and milestones regarding the Fundraise For Registration (FFR) participants:

December 1, 2023

Each runner must have raised at least $175 of the required fundraising minimum. If the runner has not raised at least this amount by December 1, 2023, the application will not be accepted, and the runner will not be eligible to participate in the event.

This will also be the deadline for fundraising balances for HERO status and to determine the HERO benefits that the runners will be eligible for.

January 5, 2024

The runner must have raised their fundraising minimum (as prescribed by your charity). If the runners do not have the minimum fundraised by this date, their bib will be held at packet pickup. (Runners will be able to be waived by the charity if they wish to and this will be the deadline for waiving runners as well). They will need to either show proof of having met the fundraising minimum or pay the remaining balance in order to pickup their bib. Alternate arrangements will be allowed on a case by case basis to be discussed with the charity administrator.

February 1, 2024

Last day to fundraise! 2024 Fundraising Campaign closes.
