Each finisher will also receive a finisher shirt.

Runners can pick up their race packet and bib number from 5:00 - 9:00 PM on Friday evening and from 5:30 - 6:30 Saturday morning at the Sedalia Center.
On Friday evening, we’ll have pizza at the Sedalia Center from 6-8 PM. This meal is optional and can be added-on during registration for $7.71 (including taxes & fees).

ALL runners MUST check in on Saturday morning between 5:30 - 6:30, even if you picked up your packet the prior evening. This is simply an extra safety measure to make sure our personnel are not looking for anyone who decided last minute to not toe the line.

Pre-race briefing will happen both via email prior to race weekend and at 6:45 AM just prior to the race start. If you have any questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to email the RD (Brian) at windingwayrunco@gmail.com with “Terrapin Mountain Question” in the subject line.

At the Sedalia Center, there is an open field and parking area to car/tent camp for FREE. If you would like a spot with electricity, you can book one of the RV spots directly from The Sedalia Center here: https://www.sedaliacenter.org/camping-at-sedalia/

We are adopting Trail Sisters Approved Standards when it comes to putting a Pregnancy & Postpartum Policy in place. Whether planned or unplanned, an expected or unexpected start or end to a pregnancy, healing and recovery time are required for a woman’s overall health.
