Live chip timing will count laps and display cumulative distance at the start and finish area. Lap scoring is the official record of distance; four laps equal 0.99 mile or 1600 meters and 1609 meters equal one mile. Direction on the track changes every three hours during the event. Short distance challenges are held during the event and participants sign up at the start finish before each challenge.
A primary aid station is provided under the north stadium cover with ice water, supplements, fruit, chips, cookies, and light hot items by request. The event is cup less so participants should bring a drinking vessel. Designated areas are available for personal supplies but space is limited and on a first come first served basis.
Pacers are not permitted. Tents and pop ups are allowed only in designated areas and are not permitted on the infield turf. Dogs may be kept in the parking lot or covered entryway but not on the track or infield. No on site medical staff are appointed; participants handle medical needs and should notify race officials for serious incidents. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
