On Course Aid/Support and Recommended Gear
On-Course Aid and Support
We will have aid stations for both the half and full marathons, with a mix of typical aid station food, water, and Tailwind nutrition. All aid stations are cupless. Carrying some type of hydration system is mandatory in the marathon, and strongly recommended for the half marathon.
Recommended Gear
The marathon high point is located at 9k feet, and the half marathon high point is located at 8k feet. We've had some years with pretty warm temperatures, and other years when it has snowed - please pay attention to the weather forecast and be prepared. It's a very good idea to bring a wind layer and warm top if the weather forecast is looking iffy. Aid stations are cupless, so runners are required to carry their own hydration system.
