Safe distances and safety protocols will be in place, and State/Town guidelines will be met. 
With fixed costs and pre-payment of many items it means we CANNOT REFUND any registration fees.
Whether we are live or virtual our commitment to our charity will be maintained.
We hope you can support this commitment and join us.
 
RACE DATA- We will be using a chip-timed start FOR THE 5k EVENT ONLY. 
 
WE NEED YOUR HELP FOR A SAFE START- If you are truly at a speedy running level
(6-7min pace per mile or under) we urge you to be at the start early and ready to go at the front 8:55 am.
This will avoid crowding on the course and help everyone to run more safely. Thanks!

ON THE COURSE-
We ask you to stay safe and run /walk on the left side, facing traffic for safety, and not run in groups.
THE ONE MILE WALK ONLY is an UNTIMED EVENT- We ask you to keep a safe distance and
