ORDERLY STAGING & SCHEDULE

You will be asked to go to an area that matches the color and number series on your running number. This number was assigned solely on your "predicted finish time". During this staging period, marshals will be positioned to assist you to the proper area and check to ensure that the number and color match the staging area. The areas will be identified with signs of the same color and number.

7:00AM Announcements / Instructions
7:15AM Road Closed to Traffic
8:15AM Runners to Staging Areas
8:20AM Final Call to Runners
8:30AM First Group / Flight Released
8:31AM Second Flight Releases & Each Minute Thereafter
8:48AM 2K Fun Run / Walk

SELF REVIEW Once in the staging areas YOU will be asked to check that ONLY runners with the same number and color series are in your staging area. This is extremely important since the computer will automatically give runners an adjusted finish based solely on their groups' starting time.

STAGGERED START Your group will be walked to the starting line led by the first runners in your group and marshals holding the rope. YOU WILL BE STARTED A MINUTE AFTER THE GROUP IN FRONT OF YOU IS RELEASED. EACH GROUP WILL BE STARTED BY THE GUN. ANY RUNNER STARTING AHEAD OF THEIR ASSIGNED WAVE WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.
