On your race day
Step 1- Bib
Attach your bib to the front of your shirt. Your number must be visible at the start, finish, and all points along the course to prevent you from being disqualified. Please do not fold, cut or alter your bib in any way, the timing chip is included in your bib and any alteration could impact the ability to time you accurately. Please ensure your race bib is:
- Clearly visible on the front of your torso
- Unaltered and unmodified (do not fold or wrinkle)
- Pinned on all four corners
- Not covered (by jackets, runner belts, water bottles, etc.)
Step 2 - Arrival Time
Your assigned arrival time found on your bib is the time to arrive in the start area. Do not arrive in the start area prior to your assigned arrival time.
Step 3 - Start Window
Your assigned start time window found on your bib is the time you will be ushered into the start corral. This time is based on your pace time, with fastest runners first, followed by slower runners.
Step 4 - Start Procedure
Race officials will check your bib and usher you into the start corral based on your start time window. You will be directed to stand on the closest unoccupied street marking within the corral. Keep moving forward as directed through the start line.
