Half Marathon Runners may pick up their bibs on Friday, July 7th from 4:00 pm – 8:00 pm at Spring Acres Arts Park (700 S 1300 E Springville, UT 84663). If runners are unable to pick up their items on Friday, they can do so on race morning before they get on the buses for the start line. PPU on race morning will begin at 4:00 am. Runners are highly encouraged to pick up their packets on Friday to avoid lines on race morning.

5K RUNNERS may pick up packets on race morning from 7:30 – 8:15 am at Spring Acres Arts Park (700 S 1300 E Springville, UT 84663).

You will need to show a valid ID to pick up your packet. Packet Pickup will be done numerically. When you show up, you will look up your number by your last name and then proceed to the corresponding line for your race bib and chip. You will then pick up your race bag and race shirt. You may pick up packets for other runners if you show a photocopy of their ID.

Will Half Marathon runners be bussed to the start line?

YES! All half marathon runners MUST ride the buses as there is no parking at the start line. Buses will begin shuttling runners from the finish line location at Arts Park – 620 S. 1350 E. in Springville UT, beginning at  4:00 am with the final bus leaving at 4:45 am. Please arrive early as the last bus will not be able to fit everyone in it!  If you miss the busses you will NOT be able to drive to the start line as the Canyon will be closed to traffic near the top.

Early bird bus rewards:

We will have a prize giveaway to our early bird bus riders including free race entries to many of our upcoming races, giveaways from sponsors, and more!  All you have to do to be eligible for one of these prizes is be on one of the first (4) buses on Saturday morning!

Will 5k runners also need to ride the bus?

No! The 5k route begins and ends at Arts Park in Springville. Do not get on the bus if you are running the 5k!

Where do I park the morning of the race?

Please park at the Springville High School parking lot and walk over to Arts Park for packet pick-up, half marathon bus pick-up, and for the 5k start. Please do not park along 900 South or 1350 East, as these roads are part of the half marathon and 5k racecourse. There will be no parking at Arts Park to improve runner safety in the driveway. Thanks for your understanding.

Will there be a clothing bag drop at the start line?

Yes, there will be a vehicle at the half marathon start line to take clothing bags down to the finish line.  Please use the plastic bags provided at packet pick-up to hold your items and be sure to label the bag with your bib number. Remember that using the bag drop service is at your own risk…Run13 is not responsible for any lost or stolen items.

If I get injured or for any other reason can’t run after I have registered, can I have my money refunded or can I change categories?

Please read the instructions below!! This is the most common email we receive on race week, so help us out by trying to follow the options on the website before shooting us an email. Many Thanks!! Once your registration has been accepted all fees are non-refundable, however, you may transfer or your entry to another runner by race day.

If the price of registration has increased since the time you purchased it, the new runner will be required to pay that difference.

Once the new runner registers on Active.com, you will receive your race entry fee back and that is how you are refunded minus any Active.com services fees. If you decide to change categories of a higher price you must pay the difference in the registration price. If you change categories of a lower price you will not receive a refund for the price difference.
