No exceptions. |
| HEADPHONES |
In accordance to the recommendations of USATF and the Road Runner's Club of America, we are requesting that you do not use Ipods or other headsets during the event. Disobeying this rule will not result in disqualification, but you will compromise your safety and that of others by wearing a headset. If you insist on wearing a headset we ask that you stay to the far left side of the runners lane due to approaching vehicles in the right lane. We truly hope you'll opt to leave your headsets at home and instead let the incredible scenery and music we provide on the course serve as your motivation and inspiration. |
| GOODIES |
A long sleeve 100% organic cotton T-shirt in unisex sizing featuring an original design to all entrants, and ceramic medallions for all finishers, pre- and post-race refreshments. |
