Water stations are placed along the courses at approximate mile markers: one on the 5k and three on the 10k, with Gatorade available at some stations. Restrooms are available in the facility near the start and finish area.
Runners receive a finisher’s medal, a technical DriFit event shirt, and chip timing. T-shirts are guaranteed for runners registered before December 2; extras may be available afterward. Packet pickup is available at the event and organizers recommend arriving about one hour before the race to check in. There will be no on-site race registration for this event.
Awards include top three men and women overall and first and second place in multiple age group bands. Live results are provided via online tracking with final results and series points posted after the race. The event benefits Operation Enduring Warrior, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on honoring and supporting wounded military service members.
