Congrats, we're excited to have you!  Plan on arriving on race day morning about 1 hour prior to the start to park, get your shirt and bib number, and get warmed up. Wear the bib (your race number) on the outermost layer on your torso, we provide safety pins to pin it to your shirt. Pin in all four corners so the number does not flap when you're running/walking. Prior to the race the announcer will call everyone up to the start line. The speedy racers will line up at the front, everyone else lines up behind them. If you are running with a stroller we ask that you line up at the back. The race will start and off you go! There are plenty of other participants and course support to guide you along the way. Refreshments will be available after the finish. We will text you your results, and also have a QR code for you to scan to pull up your results. Lastly and most importantly HAVE FUN! You will love the energy from the race!

We recommend starting out a little cold, you'll warm up quickly if you are walking or running.  If it's chilly a hat and gloves is always a good idea, and an outer layer that you can tie around your waist if you warm up. Lightweight breathable fabrics are best. Avoid 100% cotton as it absorbs moisture and will make you cold quickly. Dress for the weather and remember we need to see your bib # at all times and especially when you cross the finish line.   

The event will be held rain or shine, however if there are storms the morning of the event or forecasted during the event we will monitor and communicate any delays to participants via email. In the event of lightning, the event will be delayed a half hour until from the last lighting strike until we are 30 minutes without a lightning strike. Participants will be asked to remain in their vehicles during this time.  We will evaluate on race day if the race needs to be delayed or cancelled due to weather. If we have to cancel the race will switch to virtual.  Which means you run on your own at your own pace on a day that works for you. You'll receive your t-shirt, finishers medal and race bib. 

This event will be held rain or shine, there are no refunds for this event. As you can imagine there is a lot of planning that goes into an event and costs associated with the event. T-shirts, awards, refreshments, etc. all have to be ordered ahead of time. If the race is cancelled for any reason, including weather, we will be unable to offer refunds, or if your plans change and you already signed up we are unable to offer refunds. If we have to cancel the race will switch to virtual.  Which means you run on your own at your own pace on a day that works for you. You'll receive your t-shirt, finishers medal and race bib.
