PACKET PICK-UP
Because of our COVID-19 policy and health screening process this year, with the exception of Youth Runners and minors running in any of our other events, each participant must pick up his or her own race packet (race number, goody bag, and race shirt) no later than Friday April 29, at 7 pm during the Health & Fitness Expo at the Activities and Recreation Center (ARC). The expo is open Thursday April 28, 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Friday April 29, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Contact the race hotline (217-372-1444) if your travel plans prevent you from picking up your race packet (race number, goody bag, and race shirt).
Dynamic bib assigning: We are using cutting-edge, dynamic bib assigning, which speeds up our race number pickup process quite a bit. On Tuesday, April 26, we will email each entrant a unique QR code. Print and bring to the expo a copy of your QR code (or show it to us on your phone) to be assigned and receive your race number.
The address of the ARC is 201 E. Peabody, Champaign, IL. (See Google’s map.) For parking, see our parking map.
LATE PACKET PICK UP ON APRIL 29, 2022
We are offering LATE packet pick-up at Body n’ Sole Sports, 1317 N Dunlap Ave (Rt 45), Savoy, IL from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Friday, April 29, for those entrants who cannot get to the expo before it closes at 7:00 p.m. COVID-19 health screening will take place during this process. If you let us know by Thursday, April 28 at 11:59 pm that you will be coming to late packet pickup (sign up here), we will have your race shirt available, in addition to your race number, and goody bag. After this date, you are still welcome to come to LATE packet pickup without signing up, but we will have your race number and goody bag only. We’d be happy to mail your race shirt to you after race weekend, however. Please bring a check or money order for $5.00 (made payable to C-U Marathon, LLC) to late packet pick-up to cover the cost of postage.

GOODIES
Relay entrants will receive a Bella + Canvas-brand short-sleeve unisex jersey tee and a drawstring backpack. Finishers get a great medal, food and drink after the race, and one beverage at the 27th-Mile Celebrate Victory Bash on Saturday. (Entrants must display their race bib to receive the beverage.)
SHIRTS
Bella + Canvas-brand short-sleeve unisex jersey tee, made of airlume combed and ringspun cotton/polyester. Your relay shirt will feel oh so soft!! Note: the 2022 relay shirt will run smaller than the ALO brand shirts we had in 2019. Select your shirt size with this fact in mind. The shirt comes in adult sizes XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL and XXXL and youth sizes S, M, and L. The color is heather columbia blue. All marathon relay entrants will receive this unique shirt featuring the 2020 shirt design on the front and the 2022 design on the back. See the sizing chart
