Race FAQs
Hey there! Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions. Check back, as we may add more as the race approaches.
1. How am I going to get my race shirt?
Another great question! We will have a shirt/packet pickup at Roadrunner Sports in Westminster on Thursday, October 3rd, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
2. Are dogs allowed?
As much as I know you love to run with your furry friend, we ask that dogs (aside from any service animals) stay home. We ask this for several reasons. First, part of the course is an out-and-back section, and the path isn't wide. We want to ensure participants' progress and avoid any issues with dodging pets/leashes.
Second (this one is near and dear to me personally), because this is a family event, there are always lots of kids. As wonderful as your dog might be, some children (like my son) are very scared of unfamiliar dogs, and I have to take that very seriously. I appreciate your understanding.
3. Can you run with a stroller?
If you are going to run with a stroller, please start near the back and stay to the right of the path.
4. What’s the course like?
We will start in front of Lifetime and head west. At the end of the parking lot, go north/right. There will be cones and course marshals to help guide you. You'll get on the path and turn east/right and do a counterclockwise loop before heading out to the out and back section. On your way back you will do a clockwise loop before heading back to the finishline.
5. Got more questions?
If you have any other questions we still need to address here, please email awilkinson@bigwavesinc.org, and she’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
