STILL SPACE IN ALL RACES
REGISTRATION INCREASES 20% TO DATE

FRED-10YRRegistration for the 2012 Frederick Running Festival is up 20% from last year but there is still space and time to get signed up!  Runners continue to register for all distances and many have decided to run more than one race for some added fun! 

We appreciate everyone who has signed up but invite you to tell your friends and co-workers to sign up as well.  With great premium items and convenient off-site bib pick up in your backyard, there is no reason to pass on this one!

Our multi-event options have proven very popular as well.  Choose from the Nut Job (5K and Half-Marathon) the Maryland Double (Frederick Half & Baltimore Full or Half), or the Titanium Girl (the Frederick Half and the IronGirl Half) and get an extra medal or two for doing so.  You can learn more about these options from our website.

If you have not registered yourself or you know someone who has not registered yet, there is no time like the present!  Rates increase at the end of the month! REGISTER TODAY at our website.

COURSE FOR THE 2012 EVENT ANNOUNCED
Slight Modifications Ease Flow for Runners and Vehicles Alike

The course for the 2012 Frederick Running Festival has been approved by the necessary city officials.     The half-marathon course has undergone some slight modifications to improve traffic flow and create a wider running lane on East Street.  

The proposed course changes have also allowed us to redesign the finish line area to include an extended cool down area, immediate access to food and water, and easier entry into the Infield Post-Race Party for runners and their cheering section.

The 5K, which will be held on Saturday, May 5 at 6pm, will run the same course as previous years.
