Participants are not allowed to run with dogs.  Running/walking with a stroller is allowed.  Time limit for marathon is 5.5 hours.  Please email us for early start option, or if more time is needed.

Everyone will get a finishers medal as well as a goodie bag without the bag.  We will have bananas, snacks, water, etc.  To keep costs low we do not offer any special awards or t-shirts. This is not your normal large festival like race.  We are a low key race that emphasizes a more personal satisfaction to racing.  Thank you and look forward to seeing you out there!
