PACKET PICKUP
If you don't feel comfortable picking up your packet in person, you may select the Mail My Packet option in your RunSignUp profile in "add ons". You must do this no later than November 22nd in order to have your packet in time. A mask/face covering will be required at packet pick up the day before and on site on race day. Masks/face coverings are not required while running but strongly encouraged. We ask that you arrive no more than 20 minutes prior to your start window if you're picking up your packet on race day. One of our main priorities in keeping everyone safe is to eliminate touch points from packet pick up to the end of the event. Therefore, after picking up their race packet and any pre-purchased merchandise, participants should exit the packet pick up area. Participants may return to their cars or must otherwise proceed to the start corral in a timely manner. We know that you're probably going to be really excited to celebrate the holiday season, but we ask that you please refrain from gathering in large groups.
START CORRAL
Please do not line up in the corral if it is outside of your start window. Participants will be released in waves of 10 every 2 minutes based on the start window referenced on their bib. We ask that you line up in the corral and follow direction from staff on when to proceed. Participants in the start corral MUST be ready to approach the start line ready to run. While waiting in the start corral, we ask that participants adhere to social distancing requirements. Participants will not be allowed to congregate or conduct any race preparation (warm-ups, stretching, adjusting or changing apparel, etc.) in the start area. This may be done outside the start corral away from other participants. Upon approaching the start line, participants are required to start immediately on the staff member's audible cue.
COURSE
In an effort to reduce touch points participants must be completely self sufficient, meaning there will be no water stops or refreshments on the course. There will be 3 fun stations along the course, please keep proper social distance while stopping at each station. We ask that you help us keep the course and community clean and please do not littler on the course. It is inevitable that runners will want to pass one another, and we ask that participants pass only when it is safe and clear of others.
FINISH LINE/POST RACE
Congratulations, you finished the race! Upon completing the run and crossing the finish line, participants must continue moving towards the exit of the finish area. Please do not linger or gather in large groups. No congregating of any type will be permitted either before, during, or after the event. Participants will receive a hot cocoa packet in their swag bag to enjoy at home this year as well as free beverage tokens to Hop Haus Brewing Company to enjoy at your leisure.
