Registration: FAQ
Q: How can I register?
A: In our effort to run a “green” race, all entrants must register electronically. By completing the form to the left and continuing to the payment form hosted by paypal, you can reserve you place in the Bucks County Half-Marathon. You can also register at our expo on April 14, 2012, or even on race day on April 15, 2012.
Q: How do I register on race day?
A: Just show up to the start line by 7:30 AM. In our effort to start the race on time, we will be unable to accept any race day registrations after 7:30 AM. If you register on race day, you will not be guaranteed a shirt and medal.
Q: What does my registration go towards? How is the race priced? Why does the race get more expense?
A: Your registration fee is used to cover the cost of electronic timing, race shirts, medals, food, custom bibs, trophies and plaques, permits, medical staff, insurance, venue costs, and insurance. It is much cheaper for us to produce the event for runners who register early since we can secure early pricing on their medals, shirts, timing, insurance, etc. We encourage all runners to register as early as possible.
Q: How do age divisions and awards work?
A: Age divisions are split into under 18, 19-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60+. Divisions are also divided by gender. The winner of each division will receive a plaque the morning of the race to honor his or her victory. The overall three top male finishers and female finishers will also receive trophies.
Q: What happens after I register?
A: After you register, just sit tight until March, 2012. Come March, you will receive periodic messages regarding race day. The day before the race, stop by our expo and ask any last minute questions. Finally, make your way to Tyler Park by 7:30 AM and enjoy a fantastic run! If you need help training, you can join our free weekly training groups in Tyler State Park starting in December.
Q: What if I can’t make packet-pickup?
A: We know not everyone can make it to our expo. Therefore, we can mail your bib to you the Monday before the race for $12. Be sure to request “mail my packet” on your registration.
