Cut Offs
Run Course – 1pm
Our permit allows for the run to go until 1pm. After that, we have to pull all equipment in and open the one lane closure on Quartzville and the road closure on North River Road. Any racers on course that are in good health and are making good progress will be allowed to continue.

When it comes time to take down our Aid Stations, we will give you a water bottle and course map. Please plan to carry extra gels or nutrition at that time. It’s ok to have a friend walk/jog with you after the cut off.

Finish Line – No cut off
We leave the finish line up until every able person has crossed.

​If you think you will be cutting it close, please make sure you are prepared to be self supported at the later part of the day. Anyone on course AFTER the cut offs will be allowed to have outside support from a friend or family member.
