Event Rules

■ Participants are required to be completely self-sufficient. No water stops or refreshments will be provided on the course. Single use water bottles will be used at the finish line for finishing participants. 

■ Participants must follow all CDC safe distancing guidelines. 

■ Participants must be in good health and symptom free from any illness for at least 2 weeks prior to the event. 

■ After picking up their race number and upon approaching the starting line participants are required to immediately begin their race. Participants will not be allowed to congregate or conduct any race preparation (warm-ups, stretching, adjusting or changing apparel, etc.) in the starting area. Participants should approach the starting line ready to run. 

■ Except for passing, participants should always remain on the far left-hand side of the roadway. Participants passing one another on the course must adhere to “no drafting” rules which include being no closer than 10 feet behind or in front of, or 6 feet beside other competitors at any time. Participants may pass only when there are not any oncoming runners approaching from the opposite direction. Before passing participants must be sure they can safely remain 10 feet behind and then 10 feet in front of the participant being overtaken before merging back to the right- hand side of the pathway. 

■ Participants may utilize the far left-side of the roadway. Running on the sidewalk area along the roadway in order to maintain a safe distance from other competitors is allowed. 

■ Participants must follow all instructions of the course marshals/volunteers. 

■ Participants must know that this racecourse is an open course. This means there is traffic on the roadway and must yield to traffic at all times. When crossing an intersection, the participant is required to look both ways before proceeding, even if that means coming to a complete stop during the race. 

■ Upon completing their run and crossing the finish line participants must continue moving towards the exit of the finish area. Participants will be required to leave the finish line area and proceed immediately to their vehicle as soon as they complete their race. No congregating of any type will be permitted either before, during, or after the event.
