*Friendly Reminder for Half Marathon Participants*
We are continuing to enforce a strict 14mm pace cut off this year- there will be a sweeper bus at the Half Marathon turning point that will begin to sweep by 8:45. The bus will have snacks & water and will deliver participants back to Start/Finish area.
We thank you for understanding in this matter.
