Race Day Registration

Registration opens at 7:30 AM, 9:00 AM start time. Registration ends 10 minutes before start time. Registration can easily be done on your phone on race day.

Coffee and Doughnuts

Nothing goes better with the crisp clean air of a bluegrass Kentucky spring morning than a cup of coffee and a doughnut, or banana if you prefer.

Join a Vision Team and Save

At registration time you will have the opportunity to join a Vision Team with your friends and fellow runners or create your own Vision Team and invite your friends to join.

You can easily create a team when you register, give it a fun name, then invite your friends, family, co-workers, etc. to join your team. Teams can be as large as you want. To help you recruit members for your team, all teams of 5 or more members, will save $3.00 off their registration!

How team discount pricing works: When people register for your team, the first 4 members of the team (including you) will pay the current full registration price. The 5th person, and every subsequent person who joins the team will pay the current registration fee less $3.00. After that 5th person joins the team, to complete the 5-person team discount minimum, the first 4 members of the team will each be refunded $3.00 on their credit card!

Door Prizes
