We're pulling out all the stops to Celebrate the 4th of July! It took seventeen days to write the Declaration of Independence; so we're taking seventeen days to run 17.76 miles. Start on June 16, and take all the way to July 3rd to get your miles in. You can run them one at a time, or put it all together for one big run...It's up to you! What's the swag? We've got some great stuff! Custom Stamped Finisher Medal Custom downloadable Bib Custom Race Shirt (which is probably the best part) just like the Declaration of Independence we're putting our signatures on the bottom of the document. So as long as you're registered on time, your signature is on the shirt. Can it get even Cooler? Yes...Yes it can! Sign up for the Boot the Brits Bundle (joining in on the Freedom 50) and Save $5 off each event. You'll get BOTH SHIRTS, BOTH MEDALS, BOTH BIBS...all by the Fourth of July
