We see three distinct groups of Transcon runners.
1. You’ve successfully finished GVRAT 2025 (Transcon Region 2) and didn’t sign up for subsequent Transcon regions.
Please sign up for GVRAT 2026 (R3). Registering for GVRAT26 entitles you to receive the new shirt for this year, and the new buckle (provided you finish before October 1). You’ll also earn the Region 3 medals (puzzle pieces) when you complete GVRAT 2026 (R3) even if it is past the deadline for GVRAT finish (5 months). Once you complete GVRAT 2026 R3, wait until 2027 to join the GVRAT 2027 (R4). You have the option to order the Medal display board to showcase your medals.
2. You’ve already registered for and possibly finished the third region (R3) of the Transcon, so why register for GVRAT26?
Registering for GVRAT26 entitles you to receive the new shirt for this year, and the new buckle (provided you finish before October 1). Irrespective of the region that you are in, all of your GVRAT 2026 miles will be added to your Transcon miles, and you’ll receive the milestone posts by laz, and finisher certificates. Plus, you’ll move up on the all-time GVRAT mileage list. You have the option to order the Medal display board to showcase your medals.
If this is you, you’ve earned a discount because you’ve already registered for Region 3, and those fees will be applied to your GVRAT26 entry. Just register for GVRAT26, and at checkout enter your personal discount code. (Please reach out to us if you didn’t receive the email with the code)
3. You are only interested in completing US Transcon.
You completed GVRAT 2024 (Region 1) and went on to do the Transcon by registering for subsequent regions. If you are not interested in signing up for GVRAT 2026, please continue logging your activities in your current transcon region. Sign up for subsequent regions until you complete all 5 regions to complete US Transcon. You will receive Region medals. You have the option to order the Medal display board to showcase your medals. This is somewhat similar to CRAW, where each region medal would fit into a frame to make a complete map of your journey.
