Please be aware of the following:

Because of the nature of this race, we ask that you be diligent in obeying basic running etiquette. The fastest runners will be starting in the back of the group so all runners must be aware of their surroundings and obey trail rules when passing or being passed. 

• Run on the right side of the trail no more than two wide. 
• Pass on the left and call out to runners ahead of you if they are over the mid-line of the trail. 
• Give way to faster runners. 
• DO NOT block the trails.

Headphones are strongly discouraged.  If you do wear them, only use one earbud at a time.  This is to help ensure the safety of all participants.
