Please remember these top four things for race day:

1. Have fun and cheer on your teammates and others.
2. Know where you are running and when to make turns.  Carry your phone and use the RaceJoy App, GPS or printed instructions to help.
3. Carry your own hydration while running, if needed. There are no water stops or aid stations on the course.
4. Follow our driving directions for each leg to help with navigation.

Race Weekend Reminders

Open Roads Course
This is an open roads course.  Stay alert and run against traffic unless otherwise directed by course signage, our staff, or volunteers. The course will take place on open roads and will primarily utilize existing sidewalks and greenways. Because portions of the route run through urban areas, runners should expect stops at traffic signals, stop signs, and railroad crossings, as well as possible delays on bridges. There will be no road closures. 

Safety & Hydration Equipment - REQUIRED BY ALL TEAMS
Safety equipment, including a reflective vest, headlamp, and a rear-facing blinking LED light, is required for all runners who run before 7:30 am or after 7 pm, and in inclement conditions such as rain and fog. Each team should have at least two of each item. 

Hydration packs may be required if temperatures or humidity reach elevated levels. Please be prepared! All runners must carry water or other hydration fluids during any run when the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (a measure of heat stress in direct sunlight) reaches an elevated threat level.  Hydration packs or hand-held water bottles are recommended, and we do suggest that each person have their own hydration system available on race day. Our staff team will monitor the WBGT during race day and notify teams and event volunteers if the hydration safety requirement is implemented.  

Starting Line
Please arrive at the starting line no more than 25 minutes prior to your scheduled start time. Your first runner can enter the starting line area when their start wave is announced and should plan to start at your exact starting time. 

Timing Chips
Timing chips will be picked up at the starting line and should be passed from one active runner to the next at each transition. Timing chips must be turned in at the finish line.

Team Vehicles & Hangtags
Each team is allowed only one team vehicle on the course, and your vehicle's hangtag must be displayed on your rearview mirror for the entire race. This hangtag is required to park in transition areas and designated team parking lots at the finish line. Reminder - RVs, Limos, or Buses are not allowed on the course.

Transition Area Opening & Closing Times
Transition areas on the course will be open at designated times for each leg of the race. Teams that run more than 30 seconds per mile faster or slower than your submitted team pace may run the risk of having to hold at a transition or skip a leg. V2V HQ will communicate directly with teams about whether to hold or skip legs. Teams that skip a leg may have two runners run the next leg together.

Food and Hydration
Bring the food and water you need for the full day. There are some food options along the course, but it is important that your team van is well-stocked with food and drinks. Also, this is a pack-in/pack-out event, so please put all garbage in the trash bag provided in your team bag.

Bibs
Active runners must wear the team bib while on the course. Your bib also has a detachable coupon to claim your first beer from Crooked Hammock Brewing Company at the finish line celebration. Safety pins are in the team packet.

Medals
Medals for each team member are in your team bag. We encourage you to place medals on your teammates as they finish their final leg of the relay! Have a blast out there and stay safe!!!
