PRIZES

The top men and ladies get their choice of pies while the rest of us choose in order of finish time.

DISCLAIMER/AMENITIES

This is a low-budget but fun event that weve done over and over again to fill in gaps in the running schedule (pie filler Get it?). The race is adequately marked, measured, and timed, but there is minimal aid (one water station you pass twice with just water that could be self-serve if no one shows up to help). There is no traffic control (but theres very little traffic out there).

As always, everyone runs at their own risk (not a race for pre-teen children to run on their own).

Come out, have a great run, and share some pie!

LOGISTICS

The race will be chip timed, but still please make sure that you stay in order as you cross the finish line where volunteers will scan your bib -- we do this as a backup to resolve any missed chip reads which might occur.
