Aid Stations
Aid stations have Superganix samples on-demand and will feature Gatorade (lemon-lime, orange, or fruit punch) and Gu energy gels in raspberry lemonade
Heat Safety
We want to make sure you participate in our summer events with confidence. Here's what we do to keep you safe when the heat is high:
- We start the half marathon at 7a, the earliest possible under our permit.
- We have aid stations every 1.5 miles or less, even for the 5K athletes—5K athletes have 2 aid stations visits!
- Our on-course aid stations provide room-temperature water and Gatorade to all athletes, even the 5K.
- As soon as you finish, you will be provided a cool water and Gatorade (no waiting in line for this!). We also have ice-cold cooling towels on demand.
- Additional water and chocolate milk are available at the meal tent when you get your nutrition.
- We have moved up the award ceremonies and made the prizes a lottery so that you don't have to wait around if you don't want to.
- We didn't forget about your pups! We have dog water at every aid station and the finish line, and a pool for the pups to cool their paws at the finish line.
