Must be present at our awards ceremony to receive awards. Participants in the virtual run will not receive awards.

​Refund Policy There will be no refunds for any reason. Contact info@momsontherun.com by 8/15 to arrange a change to your registration such as: distance changes, transfer race registration to another runner, or switching between virtual and in-person (subject to capacity limits). There will be an administrative fee applied to these requests, which will be $10 for distance changes & $15 for registration transfer. Offering your bib to an unregistered participant is not allowed due to legal and liability concerns as well as that fact that it could affect age category results for all participants such as resulting in the rightful winners not receiving their earned prize.

Weather Information The Moms on the Run 5K/10K will be held rain or shine. However, for safety reasons, we will cancel the in-person events due to lightning or other severe weather, and unfortunately, we cannot provide refunds due to costs already incurred. Take care to dress for the weather conditions.

After Party Be sure to stay after the race for the age category awards, DJ and dancing, prize drawings, free food and drink, Maui Wow food truck, and our biggest award of the day: Inspiring Member of the Year
