Course, timing and services
Races are held on a 1-mile flat loop around Northfield High School. The full marathon is USATF certified and listed as a Boston qualifier. Timing uses chip timing for start and finish with chip-timed splits every mile; mile splits are displayed on timing clocks as runners pass each mile point. There are two aid stations on course: one station provides cups of water and bananas; a second station accommodates participant-provided personal aid (drinks and gels) organized by bib number. Awards are given by standard five-year age groups and include top overall and master categories for both sexes. Packet pickup is provided on race morning. All registrations are final; there are no refunds, transfers, or deferments. The event may be cancelled for extreme weather, in which case no refunds are provided.
