We're sorry to report we've decided to cancel this race for 2020. If you are already registered, you'll be receiving a full refund that will either come as a check in the mail (that looks like spam to heads up on that) or a refund to the credit card you used when you registered.

Wishing all of you the best and certainly a swift return back to the multisport lifestyle the way we all love it - sweating, gasping for air, hugging our friends, and celebrating accomplishments together. We'll get there! 
 
Patty Swedberg and the RTB Event staff
