  • All events start and finish at the same point next to the Saylor Cement Kilns, 245 N 2nd St., Coplay, PA.
  • We are proud to announce that we have a non-binary registration option that has their own awards categories: overall and age groups.
  • Every first time finisher in the half marathon will receive a ceremonial First 5k/10k/Half Marathon special plaque for your accomplishment along with a finisher’s medal. Find Mark at the end of the race and let him know you ran your first race.

SWAG

Fast Finishes is known for high-end, well-designed SWAG at our events. Entry fees will include :

  • T-shirt
  • Finisher's medal
  • fast-finishes ankle running socks
  • We do everything we can to make sure your shirt size and medal and socks are available. Sometimes items may not be available at your event. Please talk with our registration people after the race or see Mark if you have not received your SWAG! We will address and resolve your concerns to your satisfaction. Our commitment to you is that we will make good on getting any item that you expect and deserve.

  • Due to a national shortage of running jackets, we have discontinued offering jackets at our events as part of the registration fee.
