There will be important event announcements starting at 8:50AM that everyone must be present for. Our street closures are time sensitive so we cannot start late. Bib numbers must be pinned on all four corners to the front of your outer-most torso layer. This will ensure our traffic control, timing/scoring and security teams know who is a legitimate participant.
