Shirts: This year’s shirts appear to run large, if you would like to exchange your shirt or purchase shirts from previous years, please go to the shirt table across from the park.
Starting Line:
- Instead of a mass start, we will implement a rolling start.
- The starting line will be down the sidewalk of the park.
- All results will be based on net time, so your time doesn’t start until you cross the start timing equipment.
- Participants MUST start in the wave they registered for. No changes will be made to start waves.
- Please listen to announcements and only move to the starting area when your wave is called.
- No food will be distributed on the course. Please, plan accordingly.
- Energy gels will be available at aid stations at mile 5 and mile 8.
- For water and Gatorade, volunteers will extend their arm with gloved hand to distribute cups. Runners should take a cup and keep moving. Listen to volunteers who will announce if they have water or Gatorade.
Notes about the trail:
- This is an off-road run: There are some areas with really rough terrain. Please watch your step and use caution on the downhill grades.
- First water station is the turn around point for 5k participants.
- At the 2nd aid station, Half marathon participants will head to the left (south) and 10k participants will go straight over the hill.
- At the 3rd aid station, you will pass it on your way to the rim rock, you’ll loop around the rim, and double back to aid station 3. At that station, turn to the left headed west.
