Beat the Clock - Series Competition (Subject to 2026 Updates)

Beat the Clock is RUN(317)'s optional competitive layer. Specific rules, standards, and eligibility can change year to year, so use this as a general overview and confirm the 2026 details on the official RUN(317) site.

In general, Beat the Clock works like this:

• RUN(317) publishes the official requirements and standards for the season

This structure gives competitive runners a season-long goal while keeping each individual event welcoming to all paces.

With a RUN(317) Party Pass you can generally:

• Skip the run and join the event atmosphere without racing
• Enjoy the music and community vibe with registered runners
• Choose from single-event or multi-event Party Pass options (as offered)

Series Packages vs Individual Events (Pricing May Change)

• Individual events: Register per event
