Logistics and race rules
Aid is available every loop at the pavilion area; participants may set up a personal aid area under the pavilion or in the adjacent yard. Access to aid station amenities is limited to registered runners and pacers. Pacers should pick up a pacer bib at packet pickup and wear it while pacing. Packet pickup is available the evening before the race at McArthur Pavilion and on race morning.
Chip timing will be used. Bibs should be worn on the front of the body and not folded to ensure proper chip reads. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
