Online Service Fees

The Frederick Running Festival will once again cover a large majority of the surcharge that active.com charges for using their services. However, we are requiring that all runners pay $2 of this fee. We will, in turn, make a donation to Special Olympics of Maryland equal to the amount collected (approximately $8,000.) SOMD coordinates many of the volunteers at the race and do great work for disadvantaged athletes in the state. Thank you in advance for your support.

Early Bird Discounts

You can save money be registering early. Fees for all races increase on January 1st and again on April 1, 2008. Register early and save up to $20!

Further, you are not permitted to transfer your registration to any other person without written consent from a race official.
