Rules and Regulations,
Routes, Parking and Traffic Swan Valley High School: Rolling Road Closures: In place between 7:00 AM to 11:45 AM FAQ’s Are strollers allowed on the course? Jogging strollers ONLY are allowed during the half marathon. Jogging strollers and baby strollers are allowed on the 5K course but we ask that participants pushing strollers please stay to the rear of the corral at the start of the race so as not to impede runners. Can my dog run at this event? Unfortunately, no. Sanctioning and insurance requirements do not allow for pets to participate in this race. We don’t mind if Fido comes to watch, but he/she will not be able to participate. What if it rains/snows/floods? Will the event be cancelled? And will I receive a refund? This race will go on race day barring dangerous weather (i.e., tornados, lightning, extreme high winds, dangerous flooding, etc.). If lighting is present, race start time will be pushed back in increments of 30 minutes until the weather clears enough to race. Should flooding on the course occur, an alternate route will be utilized and communicated to participants. Unfortunately, we cannot control the weather and will not be able to refund participants should Mother Nature cause the event to be cancelled altogether.
