Logistics and transportation
A race shuttle bus transports solo runners back to the start line after finishing. Relay teams may stage vehicles at exchange points or bring a non-running driver. Multiple access roads allow for smooth runner pickups at exchange locations. The course design keeps vehicle traffic off the race path as much as possible.
