Is there a Shipping Fee?

By | Shipping | No Comments

Domestic Shipping is included in the cost of each single-distance virtual entry fee and covers packaging, labour and postage/courier fees. Participants will be responsible for a $10 shipping charge if a race kit is returned to CRS due to a registrant error in their address. We only ship to Canadian addresses.

Virtual Race Safety Tips 

  • Avoid high traffic pedestrian and vehicle areas. Run or walk close to home in your neighbourhood during a quieter time of day.
  • Complete your run on a treadmill, if this is an option that is available to you and that you would prefer.
  • Wear appropriate clothing. Be visible and dress for the weather.
  • Bring water and/or nutrition if you’re planning a longer route.
  • Carry a cell phone with you during your virtual race and tell someone the route you’re running in case of an emergency.
