Pi Day Run

The goal of our events is to get people outside, moving and having fun.  Running, Math and Pie enthusiasts come together at the Pi Day Run featuring run/walk distances of 2Mi, Pi (3.14) Miles, and 2Pi (6.28) Miles.  We invite Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math students or clubs to have a booth/display to be voted on by the participants.  Cash prizes will be awarded to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place booths as voted for by our participants. Proceeds benefit a scholarship fund at CSU Fresno for STEM Majors.

Run starts at 10am at the Mt View Shelter heading south towards the Audubon entrance, then follows the trail north, and all turn arounds will be marked; 2 mile, 3.14 mile, and 6.28 mile distances.  Volunteers will be have water for aid stations at each turn around.

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU PURCHASE THE EVENT INSURANCE THAT IS OFFERED WITH EACH EVENT REGISTRATION. THIS INSURANCE WILL PROTECT YOUR REGISTRATION AND PROVIDE A FULL REFUND UNDER THE TERMS OF THE POLICY. 

Common covered reasons

Examples of situations that are typically covered include:

• Illness or accidental injury that prevents participation
• Serious illness or death of an immediate family member
• Vehicle breakdown or traffic accident while traveling to the event
• Severe weather that makes travel impossible or unsafe
• Job loss or involuntary layoff
• Required work relocation (under certain circumstances)
• Jury duty
• Active military deployment

Not able to participate this year?

REFUND POLICY: THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR EVENTS, NO EXCEPTIONS.

IF YOU CANNOT RACE IN THE EVENT FOR WHICH YOU ARE REGISTERED, AND YOU DID NOT PURCHASE THE INSURANCE, YOU CAN DO ONE OF THE FOLLOWING ONLINE PRIOR TO THE EVENT, ON THE YEAR OF YOUR REGISTRATION. 

• Deferrals - Transfer to next year ($25.00) at least 4 days prior to the event.
• Transfer - To a different race ($10.00) at least 7 days prior to the event
• Transfer - To a different distance (free) at least 4 days prior to the event
• Transfer - To another participant (free) at least 4 days prior to the event

NO DEFERRALS OR TRANSFERS ARE PERMITTED AFTER THE EVENT.

Why do we charge for deferals?

Most requests for deferrals come after we have already ordered and paid for supplies (medals, bibs, chips, food, etc.) for the race.  The deferral fee helps offset some of these costs.  Transfers to another destination or person, on the other hand, are for the same event and do not incur extra costs.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math professionals, join us at our annual Pi Day Run and introduce your company to the next generation of STEM students.  Sponsorships range from $250-$1000. Proceeds from this event benefit STEM scholarships at CSU Fresno.
