📈 Race Director Note

Due to the increases in our Country in many of the expenses involved in this event (t-shirts, screen charges, medals, trophy parts, safety personnel etc...) we are forced to have to increase our registration prices. For 35 years I have tried to price my events reasonable or in line with (usually lower) than surrounding events and we still are lower with this event than surrounding half-marathons on Delmarva. Thank you for your understanding...Race Director Tim Bamforth- Seashore Striders.

T-Shirt Sponsorship: Sponsorship is always available to offset the cost of expenses. Interested email Tim at tim@seashorestrider.com
