Participation Rewards

​We have reimagined the manner in which participation points are earned and utilized. It is our goal to bring runners together at key races and events around our stores. To do so, we’ve expanded our calendar to include more races in our local communities. As motivation, we have upgraded our rewards to allow you more choices in the points  you earn and their redemption. 
​
Earning and Redeeming Points
We realize every runner has their own reason(s) for running or  becoming a part of DPR, so there are several ways to earn participation points. Earn one point for each of the following categories:
  • Be a paid participant in a race on our event calendar.
  • Support your fellow DPR members at races on our event calendar.
  • Help pace a designated pace race on our event calendar.
  • Participate or help organize a DPR event on our calendar

Track Your Points!
Enter your races and events through our google form throughout the year. We will provide recaps to track your progress and submissions on our website. At the completion of our event calendar in December, we will tally points and issue each runner a unique coupon that can be used in our online DPR webstore. Points earned this year will not expire and can be used in combination with points in 2025.

Our Online Webstore!
The store will be available for viewing throughout the year, and open to purchase/redeem points from Dec 5th - 15th.  Rewards will be processed, printed, and sent to local stores for pick up in early January. Items may include: bibSNAPS, Stickers, magnets, socks, limited edition DPR neck gaiter, winter headband, junk headband, soft comfort tri-blend t-shirt, Hoodie, ½ zip, tech tee, tech long sleeve, backpack, jacket, and duffle bag.

Special recognition will be given to the top point earners in the following categories:
 
Tick Tock Champ – for helping others reach their goals!
Most submissions for pacing DPR pace events

Store Champ – for bringing us together!
Most submissions for volunteering and organizing DPR calendar events

Cheer Champ – for inspiring the best in us!

Track Your Points!
Points will be self reported via online form. Each athlete is responsible to submit and review their participation points on a timely basis in order to get credit. We will be using the honor system, so please don’t abuse it. Please post pictures of yourself wearing your DPR team gear to our Facebook group or Instagram with the hashtag #dickpondracing.
