Due to increased security measures, the Trusted Traveler Program has been suspended. All runners and spectators 18 and older who do not currently possess a valid DoW ID with credentialed base access will need to obtain an event base access pass. In order for your pass request to be considered, you MUST register for the race prior to requesting a pass through the IARA System. Instructions on how to request a pass will be contained in a confirmation email once you have registered for the race. We have worked with our Provost Marshall's Office to make this process as easy as possible.
