FINISH LINE AREA AND LOGISTICS
With 4 events going on simultaneously, we designed the finish area with very defined barriers to keep things moving smoothly, to keep the multiple events separated better as they finish at various times, and to speed up the awards.
We will have volunteers directing you, plus multiple signs will be posted and the volunteers will be calling out instructions, (therefore keep your headphones off at the finish) so there should not be much issue.
The only time you will cross under the purple FINISH ARCH and a clock is when you FINISH.
THIS IS HOW IT WORKS! - ORIGINAL ROUTE START DETAILS.
- Start:
- 5K, 8.1 Mile, & Half start down near the tennis courts
- 30K Starts in the Boathouse lot at the actual finish line and merges into the field down Pierce Mill Road, see details on the maps page for 30K.
