Virtual Race Bag
Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5k has partnered with Virtual Race Bags to produce a 'virtual goodie bag' in an effort to 'go green' and provide additional benefits to our participants. As a participant of this year's event you will receive an email invitation to the Virtual Race Bag prior to the event giving you access to the bag. In the race bag you will find an array of valuable information including our official event guide, exclusive offers, coupons, giveaways, and messages from our sponsors.
But wait, there's more! Immediately after the event, the race bag updates to include race results. Now participants will receive another email invitation to visit their 'results bag' and also have a final opportunity to take advantage of the offers and goodies before the bag closes.
Special Bonus! Included in your registration is a one year subscription to a magazine of your choice — a $20 value! Select from: Men's Health, Women's Health, Bicycling or Prevention. Details on how to claim your subscription or request a refund will be found in your Virtual Race Bag email invitation.
So watch for the Virtual Race Bag and Get Your Green On!
