Upon course completion each runner receives a medal and t-shirt; full marathon finishers receive the DENFIT SPEAR with a new design.
Parking is free and a minimal walk to the event area; participants are asked to consider a small donation to a local non-profit (TBD). A "Quick Drop Tent" will be next to the start line for outdoor gear changes. Given winter conditions, runners are required to carry a safety light or strobe and are advised to carry personal hydration.
