FAQ:
This run will be chip timed and it is very important that you visibly wear your bib on the front of your chest/body when crossing the start and finish line to ensure an accurate race time.

We do allow strollers at this event.

We LOVE dogs but unfortunately due to the size of this race we cannot allow dogs on course. However, dogs are 100% welcome to hang out at the start/finish line and give you tons of love once you cross the finish line!

Anyone who wants to start the race after the main group has begun the run is more than welcome to and your time will still be accurate.

Headphones/iPod/mp3 devices are allowed, though are strongly not recommended. It is the participant’s responsibility to make sure that they do not impair their ability to hear and detect present or potential hazards and dangers as well as verbal instructions from course marshals.

If at any time you or someone else on course is in need of assistance throughout the run please notify a course marshal or dial 911 in case of an emergency and then please let the closest course marshal know as well.

The run will start rain, snow or shine. The run could be delayed due to lightning or other dangerous conditions. The above schedule is weather-dependent.
