Packet Pick-Up
Packet pick-up will be held on Friday, October 7 from 2:00-6:00 p.m. at the main entrance of Cape Henry Collegiate (1320 Mill Dam Road, Virginia Beach, Va. 23454). Runners are encouraged to pick up early to avoid lines on race day. Because early packet pick-up will begin prior to the end of the school day, if you are not on campus prior to 2:30 p.m., we ask that you wait until after 3:45 p.m. to pick up your packet to avoid afternoon dismissal congestion. You may pick up packets for friends and family.
Packet pickup is also available at the School on race day (Saturday) from 7:00-7:55 a.m.
Race packets and materials will not be mailed to any registered participants, except for those selecting the Virtual Race option. Packets will not be held for pick up after the race.
