FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT TIME DOES THE RACE START?
The first wave of runners begins at 10:00 a.m., followed by the second wave at 10:05 a.m. New this year, all in-person runners must check in between 8:45 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. to receive their assigned start time.

WHY ARE THERE TWO WAVES?
The two-wave system allows us to accommodate more participants on race day. This helps reduce crowding on the course and ensures a smoother race experience for everyone.

HOW AND WHEN WILL I BE ASSIGNED MY WAVE?
Wave assignments will be given during check-in at the Welcome Tent between 8:45 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Groups who want to run together are encouraged to check in at the same time to be assigned to the same wave.
