Participant Details
ALL PARTICIPANTS:
-
ROAD CONDITIONS: Cars were allowed in Easton Cemetery in 1913 and it soon became apparent that the dirt roads were no longer adequate. Many of our 9 miles of roads need resurfacing. It's a big reason why we do fundraising events like this one! Please be smart and aware of loose gravel, potholes, gravestones, tree roots and and sharp turns!
-
SAFETY FIRST: Please note that there will be runners and walkers on the course. Faster folks: pass on the left. All participants should stay aware of their surroundings and be courteous to others on the course. Stay alert, communicate when passing, and help keep everyone safe. In narrow areas, walkers are advised to walk single file.
-
PARKING: If you live in downtown Easton, we suggest you walk. If you are driving in, please allow time to park and walk to the Race Village. See Parking Info on the website.
