Is there a discount for a package?

Can I win anything?
- Athletes that register for a 3-Day package are eligible to place in the races that they start.
- Athletes that do the same distance all 3 days are eligible for a Big Dog award. These are awarded for the best combined times for the 3-day packages. See below for more detail.
This sounds hard - any tips?
- Take it slow: going fast on Day 1 will make Day 2 harder.
- Recover well: keep moving by visiting a museum or sightseeing; soak in the hot tub at your hotel or use the spin bike to flush the lactic acid from your legs; get plenty of rest!.
- Make friends: You'll notice that the Mega-Marathoners and runners who are on the Fanatics and Maniacs leaderboards tend to hang out together on the course. That's not just because they've met at other races. It's also because they've learned that company maked the miles easier!
