Entertainment
We realize that it might get a little repetitive running a 1 mile loop, so we'll have music & entertainment along the course to keep you going and motivated!
Course Cut Off
Because of the nature of the event, the course will close at 10:30 am (4 hour race time).
Notes when running:
1. Run the tangents...that means always run the shortest possible route.
2. If you want to walk or run slower, no problem...we just need you to run on the right so the faster participants can get through on the shortest path.
3. Remember...it's a one mile loop, with the .1 or .2 going from the lap count to the finish.
