- AFSP will cover your bib fee in full.
- Registering for Team AFSP through this website does NOT register you for the MCM race. In order to receive a bib entry for the MCM, you first will need to register yourself through this website. Then, after you register here, AFSP will email you a link that you can use to register with MCM. Once you register with MCM, AFSP will pay for your bib. Once the payment has been made by AFSP, you will receive an email from the MCM team confirming your participation and official registration with MCM. Again, the last day to register with MCM is August 30, 2023 at 12:00 PM (no registrations will be accepted by MCM after this deadline)
- AFSP is not responsible for any travel expenses and cannot assist with booking transportation or accommodation. The participant is responsible to organize transportation to and from the event.

- August 15, 2023 will be the last day you can drop out without being responsible for achieving your fundraising goal. After August 15, 2023, you are required to reach your mandatory fundraising minimum before November 1, 2023 or your credit card will be charged the remaining amount.
- AFSP will not transfer or issue any refunds for funds raised. If you already raised funds and you drop out before August 15, 2023, your funds raised cannot be moved to another AFSP event (Out of the Darkness Walks, Paws for Prevention, etc.) and we will not provide any refunds.
