Prices increase as each TCM event approaches, so we recommend registering early, both for the best pricing and a guaranteed spot. Click on the distance you wish to register for, and a "Register" button will appear. Limited refund and transfer options are available. Restrictions apply.
Refunds are available within 48 hours of registration. This policy is valid until 5 days before the event. To request a refund, email [email protected] within 48 hours of when you submitted your registration. If accepted, you will be refunded your race entry fee; online transaction fees are non-refundable. TCM does not have a deferral program at this time.
You may transfer your Hot Dash race entry before a set date and time (2025 information TBD) to another person or may switch to any distance that is not sold out. After the set date and time determined by TCM, your registration is non-transferable.
Transfers are conducted through your Race Roster account (helpful instructions here). Participant shirt sizing is subject to availability at the time of the switch.
NOTE: There is no switching into races that are sold out, and TCM does not maintain a waiting list.
Yes. One participant may pick up another participant's packet. Your representative will need to have your full name and race number ready to fill out an authorization form at Packet Pick Up.

While we love our four-legged friends, we ask that they cheer you on from the sidelines and you reunite with them after exiting the Finish Controlled Zone. Thank you for your understanding.

The Event Alert System, or EAS, is a color-coded method of quickly communicating to participants the potential for adverse weather conditions that can affect the race event. A series of color codes is used to indicate the increasing severity of adverse conditions as outlined here.
At TCM events the EAS flag color will be shared in the pre-race email, a packet pick up, at the Start Line, and on course during the event. Please pay attention, as flag color may change during the event.
Whether you’re looking for a one-day experience or a year-round leadership opportunity, we offer a variety of meaningful roles suited to help you reach your personal and professional goals. From course marshals to fluid stations and finish line volunteers, we have something for everyone!

TCM’s ability to impact our community is due in part to the generosity of our participants and supporters. As a member supported 501(c)3 nonprofit, we exist to provide platforms for people to run together in safe and exciting ways that are approachable for everyone, regardless of age, background or economic ability. Your support will ensure an investment in the local running community for years to come and lay the foundation for generations of participants through the TC Kids Run Free program.
