Rules & Info

Please read The Fine Art of Crewing by Patricia Wiercinski.

Runner Bib must be worn on the front and outside of whatever clothing you are wearing.  Aide station volunteers need to know your number so they can check you in.  It is the runner’s responsibility to insure that you have been checked into each station.

  • ABSOLUTELY NO LITTERING!  You will be disqualified if you, your crew or your pacers are caught littering.
  • No aid is allowed from a moving bike/vehicle.
  • Any runner accepting a ride for any reason is out of the race.
  • Crew Members, please remember that pets must be leashed at all times and should never be on the course.
  • All decisions of medical personnel are final.
  • Use of trekking poles or headphones (walkmans, radios, etc.) is discouraged but will not result in disqualification unless, in the opinion of the race director, it produces a hazardous or advantagous situation.

Parking

All parking signs must be followed. No parking is allowed in driveways or in the road. All parking at handler access stations must be out of traffic and must not block roads or driveways. Handlers must follow directions of aid station personnel.

Quitting the Race

If you decide to drop from the race, make certain that proper procedures are followed: THE RUNNER OR CREW MUST NOTIFY RACE PERSONNEL AT ONCE, AT THE CLOSEST AID STATION. This policy is for your safey. We want to keep track of our runners along the course.

Drop Bags

Extra supplies may be left at check in on Friday for delivery to the aid stations that you specify. See the list of available drop-off points. Supplies must be in a durable bag, clearly marked with the runners bib number and the station to which it is to be delivered.

Most drop bags will be returned to the finish line by noon on Sunday.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST, STOLEN OR FORGOTTEN ARTICLES. ARRANGEMENTS MUST BE MADE IN ADVANCE FOR RETURN OF ANY ITEMS NOT PICKED UP ON SUNDAY.
