A personalized bib is guaranteed if registration is completed about three weeks before race day; a guaranteed t-shirt deadline is listed as October 10. Bibs and event t-shirts are distributed on race day. Entry fees are non-refundable and non-transferable; registration terms include a standard liability release and media permission. The nearest subway stop is Mets-Willets Point; registration and event operations are located in front of the Queens Museum, a roughly 10-minute walk from that station.
