IMPORTANT RACE DAY ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Unfortunately, the skate portion has been cancelled.
IMPORTANT: Please do not have any other team members run with your 5k or 10k person.
Reasons:
Having multiple team members and extra people on course creates complications with our Timing and Railway Volunteers who write down bib numbers and associated times (in case there is a failure in the electronic timing system). It will create confusion and data errors. In turn, it may impact timing results.
It is important that:
- people do not interfere with other race participants; and
- people do cause confusion with our Timing and Railway Volunteers.
This means people should away from the timing zones and not crossing the timing mats and not run past the Railway Volunteers – unless they are the intended race participant for that leg/portion.
