SAFETY GUIDELINES

Race day protocols, health recommendations, and conduct rules to keep every participant safe and healthy.

FOLLOW COURSE MARSHALS

Course marshals are stationed at every intersection. Follow their instructions at all times — they are there for your safety.

STAY ON COURSE

The course is marked with cones and signage. Do not cut through yards, alleys, or unauthorized areas. Stay on the designated route.

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY

If you feel dizzy, chest pain, or shortness of breath, stop immediately and seek help at the nearest aid station or medical tent.

HYDRATE PROPERLY

Drink water at every aid station (1.5K and 3K marks). Do not skip hydration, even in cooler weather.

NO HEADPHONES

For everyone's safety, we strongly discourage headphones. You need to hear marshals, vehicles, and fellow runners.

EMERGENCY CONTACT

Carry your emergency contact info (on the back of your bib). Race-day emergency number: displayed at the start line.

HEALTH RECOMMENDATIONS

Get a good night's sleep before race day

Eat a light, familiar breakfast 2 hours before the race

Warm up with light stretching and jogging

Don't try new shoes or gear on race day

Apply sunscreen and wear weather-appropriate clothing

Cool down and stretch after crossing the finish line

EMERGENCY

In case of emergency, alert the nearest course marshal or proceed to the medical tent at the finish line. On-site medical team is equipped for race-day injuries and heat-related incidents.
