Pride 5K Run / Walk

Registration Fees

• $40 – Until July 1
• $45 – July 1 – July 12
• $50 – Race Day

Race Shirts and Finisher’s Medal

Every participant will receive a beautiful, top-quality, short-sleeve shirt and a finisher’s medal. Shirts must be picked up at the bib pick-up hours or on race day. They will not be mailed. While we will do all we can to ensure you receive the shirt size you request, unfortunately, we cannot make any guarantees.

Refunds

As this is a charity event, we are unable to offer refunds or transfers on entry fees.

You can now register and run as a team! Not only do you get bragging rights for being awesome, we have special prizes for the top Male Team, Female Team and Mixed Team. 

There’s no limit to the number of people on your team – but you must have at least 5 to qualify for prizes; the five fastest runners will count for scoring. At least one scoring member must be from the opposite gender.

You may pick up your bib and registration packed the day before the race, or on race day.

Race day registration and bib pickup

You won’t want to miss the stage and start of the race!

What if I can’t pick up my bib packet on Friday?

Not to worry! You have a couple options. You can either have someone else pick up your bib number and race shirt for you or you can pick it up on race day. If someone else is going to pick up your racing material, they must come with a photocopy or picture of your ID – no exceptions.

Timing

The ChronoTrack system uses a UHF RFID disposable tag that allows you to walk away after the finish without having your tag collected. Your results will be available the day of the event in the early afternoon – check back here for the link.

Why do we run? Because it’s super fun! But also because we’re doing some good for San Diego.
