Rules



Rules
  • The course will be well marked and course marshals will be on the course for the first couple hours of the race to assist the runners with road crossings. If you do not see a sign to turn, don’t.
  • When running on the road, run on the side facing traffic. There will be a short road section when the runner will run with traffic and will be marked appropriately.
  • The runner must wear the race number on the front and must be visible at all times.
  • Each runner must make sure their bib number is recorded at the aid station so the appropriate number of laps can be counted.
  • You are responsible for your own health and each runner must know their own limits. If it appears the runner is having medical or other issues which may compromise their health and safety, the Race Director or medical staff reserve the right to remove a runner from the race.
