Athletes Information
Course
The course starts off in a retention pond that never retains water! You will then run a short loop around the retention pond and into the wooded trails. Most of the race is in the trails and then you pop out of the woods for a 150 meter sprint to the finish down the football field. The is course is 20% grass 80% trails.

Individual Awards
Since this is last minute we do not have the normal custom individual medals that you are use to with a B3R Sports event. As of now there are not going to be any individual awards. If time permits I will try to find something but no guarantees

Team Awards
I will try to get some team awards made between now and the event but I cannot promise those either.

Timing
Half-Mile Timing will be timing. As of now I cannot guarantee any video boards. But we will try to have a finish line board scrolling names and a run clock at the finish. It will be whatever they have available.

All 3 mile markers will be 8 tall so you can see them. I will have mile markers and meter markers on the course.

We will have a lead and trail cart
Snow Cones will be for sale
Small concession stand
Music will be playing during the event
Permanent restrooms are on site and portable toilets will be brought in as well.

Please understand this is not a normal B3R Sports event. This event was planned and put together in 8 hours. We will try and make it the best possible for the teams attending.
