Race Day Questions

The time limit for this event is 3 hours and 30 minutes, which is a 16-minute per mile pace. The cutoff time is determined by our event permit, which permits us to use the roads, police support and other city resources for a specified period of time. After the permitted period ends, roads will reopen and we will no longer be able to provide participants with critical course support, including road closures, police and medical coverage, hydrations stations and course markings.

 

When the course closes at the cutoff time, any remaining participants must move off of the roads and onto a sidewalk. Anyone who decides to utilize the course route before or after the permitted time will not be considered an active participant and must follow pedestrian laws. Participants who do not meet the cutoff time will not receive an official time.

Pets are not allowed on the race course for the safety of race participants, spectators and the animals.
 
However, service animals as recognized by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) are permitted on course. Should you decide to run the race with a service animal, please email your information to info@resortraces.com. Runners with ADA service animals will be placed in the last corral behind individual runners for safety purposes.

Strollers are not allowed on the race course for the safety of race participants, spectators and stroller passengers.
