Aid stations are stocked with Tailwind, water, Honey Stinger gels and waffles, fruit, and snack items. The course is marked with pink flags, ribbons, signs, and trail marshals. There is no cutoff time for the half marathon.
Runners receive a locally made finisher medal, a quality race shirt, free race photos, and a post-race breakfast provided by Great Harvest Bread (including cinnamon rolls, muffins, and pumpkin chocolate chip bread). Awards include overall plaques and gift cards for top finishers and age-division medals for set age groups. Free parking is available at the park with additional lots nearby.
