Frequently Asked Questions
T-Shirts: Are you sold out of my size? Can I change sizes? If I can't come to packet pickup, can you just ship it to me?
If you register before the T-Shirt deadline posted on our homepage, you will be guaranteed a shirt in your selected size. After that, T-shirt availability will be limited to stock on hand and we may sell out of your size. If T-shirt sizes are sold out, it will be indicated when you register for the race. In that event, you can select no shirt or you can select a different size, if available.
T-shirts will be handed out at packet pickup with your bib. T-shirts are forfeited if they are not claimed during packet pickup; we will not ship nor hold them for later pickup. We cannot exchange sizes of T-shirts at packet pickup because they are all reserved for other participants.
Do you really require an ID for the beer garden? How many beers can I have?
Yes, bring your ID with you! We are required to ID every person entering the beer garden, even if you are clearly over 21. No ID, no entry, no exceptions. Our beer garden has a two beer limit.
Are dogs allowed at the race?
No. We love dogs too, but we ask that you please leave dogs at home whether you are a runner or spectator.
Can I wear headphones?
No, headphones are not allowed for everyone's safety.
What's the etiquette for lining up at the starting line?
Faster runners should line up towards the front, followed by slower runners. Walkers should line up near the very back. This creates a smooth start and minimizes collisions.
When is the award ceremony?
We don't have an award ceremony. Pick up your award from the Yellowstone Rim Runner tent (near the beer garden) before you leave the race. To check if you're a winner, you can look up your results on this website, at the timing kiosk, or you can sign-up to have your results texted or emailed to you when you sign up for the race. In 2025, the top three male and female finishers in 5-year age groups win an award. The costume contest winner will also receive an award. All awards must be picked up at the race.
Can I register the morning of the race?
No, there is no race day registration.
What's your refund policy?
We do not provide refunds or transfers for this race.
I'm from out of town. Can I pick up my bib on race morning?
Yes, we have packet pickup for out of town runners on the morning before the race. See the packet pickup page.
