Course, services and policies
The course is an out-and-back loop that starts at Creeper Cottages, goes to a landmark called the Pepsi Machine, and returns; runners repeat the loop for additional distance. The route is compact and intended to require no crew or pacer. Timing is provided by a professional chip-timing company offering real-time tracking, live lap counting and splits. The event is cupless; each entrant must bring a reusable cup (foam or collapsible for hot liquids and a reusable cup for other drinks). The refund policy states there are no refunds, deferrals or transfers. Entry policies include provisions for athletes with disabilities and acceptance of an entrant’s declared gender; non-binary entrants can request pronoun changes after registration.
