The event is held at the Pelican Point picnic shelter. The registration fee covers several amenities, including full-day admission to the park, a gender-specific t-shirt, and access to a post-run party. This party includes a finisher meal featuring food items such as hot dogs, chips, protein bars, and bananas. Non-alcoholic beer is available for all, and participants aged 21 and older with a valid ID can receive beer. Those who complete the 10 Mile distance also receive a finisher mug.
The race serves as an official qualifier for the BolderBoulder. The event follows a cup-free finish line policy to reduce waste.
