3. Affiliate disclosure

Lone Star Strides participates in affiliate programs.

4. Race and store information

Race information comes from RunSignup's public race listings as entered by race directors. Store information is taken from each store's official website, and each listing shows the source and the date it was checked. We make reasonable efforts to keep everything accurate, but dates, distances, prices, registration status, addresses, and hours can change without notice.

Always confirm details with the race organizer or store before registering, traveling, or making a purchase. Radical Runs LLC is not responsible for inaccuracies or changes to third-party information. Corrections are welcome at darrin [at] radicalruns [dot] com.

If you send us information such as a race, store, or correction, you confirm you have the right to share it and grant Radical Runs LLC a non-exclusive license to use it on the site. We may accept, edit, decline, or remove any submission at our discretion, and we only publish store details we can verify against an official source.
