Your review will be published after it clears our spam and profanity filters
After your review is submitted, it is moderated for spam and profanity. If RaceThread filters deem the review inappropriate for any of these reasons, it will not be published
Use general language and do not be very specific when searching. For example, sometimes the race name in our database may be slightly different than what you typed in like “Megan’s 5K Splash and Dash Tulsa” could be entered into our database as “Megan’s Splash and Dash” or sometime the word “Annual” is missing from “3rd Annual Freedom Run 5K”
Change the date range of the race. If the race occurred recently and the next race date has not been updated, you may have to search a larger date range to ensure the race appears
Enter fewer race details – this will return a greater number of races from which you can use the filters to narrow down the races further on the race results page

This ensures spammers are kept to an absolute minimum on RaceThead.com. This also allows reviews to be validated and limits biased or falsified reviews
We source our race information on an individual race basis and also rely on users like you and race directors to constantly update races on a daily basis.
We make every effort to keep our database as up to date and current with existing and new races as they come out.
If you see a race which does not display the new race date, or has other outdated/incorrect information, please CONTACT US or click on the link at the bottom of the race page “Is this your listing?” and submit the updated race information
Race pictures are provided by the race director/organization only after the race has been vetted and cleared by RaceThread staff to allow that race director or business to upload pictures
Picture uploads are limited to 2 MB/picture and 10 pictures maximum
Additional race information is a paid feature and is provided by race directors themselves, not by RaceThread staff.
Claiming a race information can be found HERE (link to claim a race)
We maintain up-to-date links with race registration companies to provide links to users like you updated on a daily basis
With many races having their own registration company/link, it is difficult to provide a link specifically for every single race
If you are the director or consultant for a race and would like to provide that registration link, please email us HERE and we’ll be more than happy to update the race listing and registration link
