How to Enter the Race or Lottery

2024 registration for priority entrants and lottery hopefuls will be March 1-31.
Registration buttons will be posted on the Home Page. 

Basically, here’s how registration works: you either have Priority Registration status — or you do not.

If you have priority registration
, simply register between March 1-31, pay your entry fee ($85 for adults, $35 for juniors), and you’re all set.

  • If you DO NOT have priority, you may enter the registration lottery between March 1-31, 2024 for a fee of $20 for adults or $15 for juniors.
  • If you win the lottery, you will be invoiced the remaining balance ($65 for adults, $20 for juniors) and once paid, you’re all set.
  • If you lose the lottery, you can try again in 2025.
