Q: Do I have to wear my race number?
A: All participants must wear their race bib and have it clearly displayed on their FRONT during the event. The race number is how you are timed and scored. If we can't see your race number, you may not be listed in the results. Everyone on the course must be wearing a race bib. The only exception would be a child (4 years or younger) that remains in a stroller for the duration of the 5K. Under no circumstances can you wear a race bib not assigned to you, or carry a race bib for someone else.

Q: Are dogs allowed?

A: No – although we love dogs, due to safety concerns, they are not allowed anywhere in the event. 

Q: Can I walk instead of run?
A: Yes! Even though this is a timed event, we welcome all runners and walkers! However, if you are planning to walk we do ask that you start toward in the back. 


Q: Can we bring strollers or baby joggers?
A: Sure! But we do ask that you start in the back so as not to impede the other runners.

Q: Where can I see my results?
A: When you finish your race, you can find your results on the scrolling monitors near the finish line. You can also text your bib number to the number found on the back of your bib to receive your time. A few minutes after you finish, preliminary results can also be found online at 131Results.com. Please check your results before you leave. PLEASE PICK UP YOUR AGE GROUP AWARD AT THE EVENT - WE CANNOT MAIL AWARDS.
