Dogs are allowed to run with participants but retractable leashes are not permitted; runners are asked to be aware of and stay clear of other runners. The event has published contingency plans for weather: rain alone will not cancel the event unless visibility is severely reduced, lightning triggers successive 30-minute postponements when detected within six miles, and any tornado warning close to the event results in cancellation. Organizers reserve the right to shorten courses to comply with road closure agreements or safety requirements. Results from prior years are maintained by the event.
