Will there be water stations on the course?

Yes! We will be providing water stations on the course, BUT we highly recommend that all half marathon/12K runners bring their own hydration packs/bottles, etc. as we will be minimizing the use of cups on the course. This is our way to keep the park and trails clean and free of trash.

Unfortunately, we will not be mailing out any items. All items must be picked up on-site at packet pickup or race morning. This applies to race items and awards. If you cannot make it to the event, you can have a friend grab your items for you as long as they have a copy of your ID.
