Starting Line Tips

Arrive Early: Plan to arrive an hour before your race starts.

Race Courtesy: Walkers should line up behind runners in the 5K race. 

Thank a Volunteer: Our event wouldn't be possible without our amazing volunteers. Please thank them whenever you see them before, during, or after the race.

 

Finish Line Tips

Celebrate Your Finish: Smile and raise your hands as you cross the finish line for a great photo.

Keep Moving: After crossing the finish line, keep walking. Water will be available in a cooler at the finish line and under the large tent. Moving through the finish chute helps prevent congestion and aids in recovery. Port-a-potties are not far from the finish line.

Post-Race: After you finish, meet up with family and friends and relax. Food and drinks will be available. Snap some selfies at the awards ceremony backdrop. Cheer on your fellow runners and walkers during the awards ceremony.
