Inclement Weather Policy
Weather forecasts will be monitored prior to the event, paying special attention to the possibility of heavy rain, thunder and lightning, high winds, and extreme temperatures. If necessary, athletes will be made aware of these predictions on the RunFit website: www.irunfit.org so that participants can properly prepare for severe weather during the race and possible course alterations. Severe weather updates will also be emailed to participants, as necessary.

The Race Director will monitor the weather and decide if any action will be taken to modify the race. Possible changes include altering the start time for the race or, in extreme situations, canceling the event. Please listen closely to all public address announcements at the race's starting line. Visible lightning will cause the race to be postponed for a minimum of 15 minutes. Additional sightings will continue to delay the race in 15-minute increments. If extreme heat is predicted, extra water will be provided to the athletes, both before, during, and after the event. The medical team will be alerted that athletes may require additional medical attention during and after the event due to the high temperatures.

 

Results:
The event will be timed using RunFit’s RACE|RESULT Timing System. Efforts will be made to post unofficial results at the finish line within 15 minutes of each participant finishing the race. Results will be posted online at www.irunfit.org.  Participants who want their official time posted and included in the results MUST wear a timing chip/bib. No timing chips will be given to Kids K participants since this event is non-timed. Please note: Awards will be presented immediately after each event.
