Event operations use lap counting to determine final results. Runners are responsible for their own food and water; the event is cup free so participants must bring personal hydration systems. Volunteers provide lunch and a concession area will offer hot food during the event. Crew support is allowed each lap from a designated area near the start line. Pacers are not permitted unless they are registered participants. Littering on course may result in disqualification. Restrooms and a porta toilet are available near the start finish area, and tent and RV camping with park registration and associated fees are possible on site.
