Veterans may register for free and active duty military may register for a reduced fee of $15. A government issued military ID is required for those entry categories.

Awards are presented to the top three male and female overall finishers in each distance, to the top three overall Masters, Grand Masters, and Senior Masters male and female finishers, and to the top three athletes in five-year age groups beginning at 10 and under across all distances.
