Final routes may be adjusted based on course conditions and participants will be notified by email if changes occur.
All registered runners receive full access to RideWithGPS for the event; the app can provide audio cues before turns. Portions of the course are technical and a change of pace may be necessary. Recommended gear includes a charged cell phone, a navigation app or GPX file, a hydration pack or water bottle, a minimum 200 calories of food, a whistle, and microspikes or Yaktrax for traction if there is snow.
