Registration is $30 if you sign up by 11/13. On 11/14, the price increases to $34.

Where do I park?

There is parking behind the Saratoga Hilton Hotel, which will fill up early. There are many streets to park on around the Hotel, none of which will make for a long walk. Simply avoid no parking signs. There are also plenty of parking garages within walking distance- including one right at the hotel.

Note: Do not park across from Old Bryan Inn, where the sign says “do not park past this sign.”

Can someone else pick up my bib and race packet for me?

Yes you can. Please proceed to the registration room, find your name and ask for your T-Shirt.

On my registration, my name is misspelled, my age is wrong, I have moved, etc.
