We are fully committed to holding the race this year in our effort to support Madison schools' intellectual disabilities programs. Know that by participating, your are contributing to your local community. We especially want to give a shout-out to those who have donated to the race despite deciding not to run it this year. Every bit helps!
T-shirts will be limited this year, so sign up before they run out!
With the pandemic in mind, here are the precautions we'll be instituting for your safety and that of the volunteers.
1) Hand sanitizer stations will be available.
2) Everyone will need to wear masks and maintain social distancing within their own social groups before and after the race.
3) Masks may be removed for the race, but participants must maintain social distancing when lining up at the start line. Remember that the race is chip-timed, so runner times will be accurate despite spacing apart at the beginning.
4) During the race, we ask that participants keep to the far right of the path. When passing others, please pass as far to the left as possible.
5) Bottled beverages such as water and Powerade will be handed out by volunteers wearing gloves. We ask that crowds not congregate around the beverage stations.
6) Finishing times will not be physically posted in order to keep crowds from forming around the posting. Participants will be able to check finishing times online.
7) Instead of an awards ceremony, the awards will be mailed to each winner.
