Gear check is available at the event.
Packet pick-up is offered before race day and on race day; if a packet is held for pickup on race day there is a fee per packet. Packet shipping is available for a fee and includes the race shirt and bib.
The course includes water and aid stations and volunteer support. Cookies, candy, and hot cocoa are provided at the finish. The event uses RFID timing chips attached to bibs, posts live results during the event, and posts official results within 24 hours. Awards are given to the top three overall male and female finishers in each event and to first-place finishers in specified age groups; the Kids Dash does not receive awards.
