ZONER RULES
- Only complete laps count. There is no credit for partial laps.
- Your distance is based on the number of completed 1.77 mile laps within the time you registered for.
- Final results will be calculated based on each runner’s total mileage at the call time as determined by that runner’s last completed lap.
- If you are struggling at any point in the run, race officials will have the right to evaluate you, and it will be their call if you will be allowed to continue. These decisions will be made with your safety and desire to finish in mind.
- If you decide you are done running/walking/crawling before your time is up, come in to the start/finish area, tell the timing staff and sign the FINISHED clipboard. Your decision is final.
- Once the finishing chute is up Saturday afternoon, simply go through it when you are done.
- Unsportsmanlike conduct, course cutting, littering, or violation of any of the camp rules or any of the policies set forth here will be grounds for disqualification.
- If there is threatening weather at any time during the event, it is your responsibility to take cover and provide for your own personal safety. In the event of major thunderstorms, lightning strikes, and/or high winds, please take all precautions to ensure your safety. This may include going into the lodge during severe weather threats. Please do not endanger your personal safety. Whether or not the clock is still running, your life and those of your family/crew/pacers, is far more important. Depending on circumstances, we may order all volunteers/runners to seek shelter. If so, please be understanding/cooperative as it is for your own safety. Plus we hate getting the body bags out, notifying the next of kin, and doing the paperwork. Our insurance tends to frown on it too. ;-)
