Entry Fee Includes

Fun and challenging course design, limited race entry of 300-450 depending on the park, professional race operations, wonderful volunteer support, aid stations stocked with water and Gatorade, medical support, accurate results, timely posting of results at the event and on the EX2 website, plentiful post-race food, electric atmosphere, great music, awards, and colorful t-shirts (one/person for the series. see below).

T-Shirts

High-quality Zorrel t-shirts for men and Next Level t-shirts for women (NEW IN 2012) are distributed at the Spring Backyard Burn Trail Running Series. The Zorrel Z100 men’s tees have a cotton feel and microfiber Dri-Balance Lifestyle Moisture Transport Technology. The Next Level ‘boyfriend’ women’s tees are a 100% super soft combed 4.3 oz cotton jersey with a slim fashion fit, a longer length, and longer sleeves, like your boyfriend's old t-shirt but with a fit for women. Any racer may order either the men’s tee or the women’s tee. All racers that register at least 10 days before the event are guaranteed a t-shirt in their specified size. In an attempt to predict racer participation, we will order some additional t-shirts. However, those registering within 10 days of the event will receive t-shirts while supplies last.

Hi-Res Photos

Adventure Sports Photographers shoot most EX2 races. Their high-resolution digital images and prints of all sizes are made available for purchase post-race (usually within 2-7 days after the event).
