STAY SAFE PLAN AND EVENT DETAILS
Flexible start time: Start the race any time between 9:00 am and 10:00 am. There will be no crowded mass start. Begin your race when it is free of other participants. No more than 5 people will start at a time. Start when you are ready and at your own pace.
Packet Pickup/Check-in area: We suggest that you take advantage of our packet pick up time at playmakers to help us avoid a crowd on race day. Packet pickup will be Friday, October 9th from 2-7 pm at Playmakers 2299 W Grand River Ave, Okemos, MI. We will also provide packet pick up the day of the race from 8:00 am to 10:00 am near the start/finish line at registration. The packet pickup/check-in area will be spaced out to allow for social distancing.
T-shirts: T-shirts will be guaranteed to registrants who sign up by Sunday, October 4th. T-shirts distributed at packet pick up at playmakers or at packet pick up on race day.
Masks: We ask that everyone wear a mask during packet pickup and we suggest that all participants wear a mask before and after the race. All staff and volunteers will be required to wear masks. Please feel free to walk or run in a mask if you feel more comfortable with this.
Results: Your accurate chip time and current overall and age group place will be live on this site. Please remember your overall and age group place will not be final until the last person has crossed the finish line at approximately 1pm.
Awards: We will not have an awards ceremony. Medals will be awarded to the overall male and female and the 1st place winner in each age group (men and women). Overall male and female will receive an additional prize. Medals and prizes will be available for pick up at Playmakers up to two weeks after race day.

Sanitation Stations: Hand sanitizer will be available at registration and hand washing stations will be available near the porta potties.
Parking: Please feel free to park in the Brenke Fish Ladder parking lot.
Note: In the unlikely case that we would have to cancel this in person race because of extreme and unforeseen circumstances surrounding COVID-19, we would move all race entries to be virtual.
