START PROCEDURE: Please do not crowd the start. Once again, we will have chip transponders at the start that should pick up your time when you cross the start, so you get an official start to finish ("chip") time. So no need to rush to the start once the horn is blown. Also, those in the 1-Mile should line up at the back of the pack to allow the 5K runners suficient room to begin their run.

RACE DAY BIB PICK UP: We do not guarantee race day packet pickup. The earlier you get there the more likely you are to get your bib. Bib pickup opens at 7:45 am. If you have registered, you free to run without a bib, however you will not receive a time. 1 Miler runners do not need bibs, but there are vanity #1 bibs if wanted.
