Aid Station and Cut Off Information

That's right! We have gone cupless!

​​

What does that mean?

• Hands free water dispensers will be located at the start/finish line and at every aid station.

• Runners can use these to fill bladders, bottles​

• Gloved volunteers will pour sodas/misc drinks into runners' reusable cups.

• To further reduce waste at aid stations, runners may bring a small reusable bag or bowl for food to be served into.

• Reusable bowls are optional but a great way to reduce waste.
