You can still participate on a fundraising team even if you can’t actually attend the Race for the Cure. Your team captain will appreciate your efforts to help with fundraising. Just sign up for the Sleep for the Cure (and sleep in) or sign up as a regular participant and not attend. You can set up your personal page and start your fundraising!

How do I pick up my T-shirt?
There are three ways for you to pick up your T-shirt and bib.
1. If you are a member of a team, your team captain can pick up your T-shirt in advance of the Race. Team T-shirt pick up day is May 30th at Road Runner Sports, 7020 Woodlawn Ave. in Seattle.
2. You can have your T-shirt mailed to you for an additional $5.00 fee, available with online registration only. Or through Sleep In for the Cure, available online or by mail-in registration. T-shirts are mailed in late April and early May.
3. Pick up your T-shirt on Race Day at our Registration tables at Qwest Field.
Why does it cost more to register by mail or on Race day?
The additional $5 for mail-in registration and $10 for registration on Race day go directly to offset the increased administrative fees associated with processing paper registration forms. Your best value is to register yourself as in individual or register your team online today!
What’s included in my Race fee?
Entry in the Race—as a walker or runner—and inclusion in all the Race day festivities
official Puget Sound Race for the Cure t-shirt and Race bib, plus personal satisfaction in joining the breast cancer movement and racing for the cure!
What is the difference in Children and Youth registration?
Child registration is for ages 5 years and under. Youth registration is for ages 6-12. All t-shirts for children and youth are youth sizes.
What portion of my fees are tax deductible?
Pledges and donations above Race registration fees are 100% tax deductible. Race registration fees are not tax deductible. (The IRS does not allow deductions when you receive items of value (such as Race materials and insurance coverage during your Race participation) for the entry fee.
If it rains can I get my money back?
The Race will occur rain or shine. We reserve the right to cancel in extreme circumstances. In that event that the Race is canceled there will be no refund; rather, your entry fee will be used as a donation to the Komen Puget Sound Race for the Cure.
Trouble with registration?
If you have trouble with registration please send an Email to Race2009@pskomen.org
Can I switch my registration from Individual to joining a team?
You can do this by emailing your request to teams2009@pskomen.org Be sure to include your name your and desired team and we’ll take it from there!
I accidentally joined the wrong team. How can I switch teams?
You can do this by emailing your request to teams2009@pskomen.org Be sure to include your name, old team and desired new team.
How do I increase my fundraising goal?
Login through the Race website. Go to My Race Center and look to the bottom right where you can adjust your goal.
What does my registration fee cover?
The registration fee covers only the costs of the Race. Thanks to your fundraising efforts last year, we expect to raise over $2 million to fund the fight against breast cancer.
Is fundraising required?
Fundraising is not required, but encouraged. This has always been one of the primary purposes of the Race for the Cure. We hope that each participant will set a personal goal of raising $150. Remember, $150 is the cost of an average mammogram!
Is the Race for the Cure the same thing as the Breast Cancer 3-day?
The two events share the same beneficiary, Susan G. Komen for the Cure. The Race for the Cure is a 5K run/walk that starts near Qwest Field with 75% net proceeds staying in Western Washington. The Breast Cancer 3-day takes place later in the summer and is a 60 mile journey.
Is there a minimum number of people that make up a team?
We encourage teams of all sizes! But in order to qualify for team prizes, your team needs to consist of 10 or more members.
As a team captain, can I pick up all of my member’s t-shirts and bibs?
Yes! Team T-Shirt pickup, for teams with 10 or more members, is will be held on May 30th at Road Runner Sports (7020 Woodlawn Ave. NE, Seattle, WA). You will receive an up to date roster with the names and t-shirt sizes of each of your members. If any of your team members chose to have their materials mailed to them before the Race ($5 fee), your roster will reflect that they have already received their materials.
I missed Team T-Shirt Pickup! What do I do?
Your roster and items will be available for Race Day pickup. Just go to the Registration and T-Shirt/Bib pickup area at Qwest Field. Because of heavy traffic, we recommend you arrive early to allow time to pick your items up and distribute them to your team.
Can our team have assigned seating in Qwest Field?
Yes! Assigned seating can be requested prior to Race Day. Email your request to teams2009@pskomen.org and we will email you back with a seating assignment the week before the Race. If you don’t request assigned seating, not to worry. There’s plenty of open seating at Qwest Field!
Is there a central location where I can meet my team members?
Yes! It’s best to request assigned team seating in Qwest Field as you can use this area to meet before and after the Race. It is also a great place to get a photo of your team!
Why did I only get a Survivor T-Shirt this year? In the past, I’ve gotten a Survivor T-Shirt and a White T-Shirt.
After polling some of our Survivors, we found that most only ever wore their Survivor T-Shirt, so this year, we decided to make the White T-Shirt available by request. If you’d like the White T-Shirt, just go to the Registration and T-Shirt/Bib pickup area at Qwest Field on Race Day.
