FAQs:
Will there be a bag check?
Unfortunately, due to safety concerns, there will not be a bag check. We ask that you leave personal items in your car and recommend that students rent a locker in the RPAC.
Can I run with a stroller?
Yes, strollers are allowed on the course. However, we ask that you start near the back of the corral and give way to other participants for safety.
Can I bring my dog?
Dogs are strictly prohibited for the safety of both participants and our K9 friends.
Can I walk the course?
Yes! We welcome runners and walkers alike.
What is a virtual race?
Now you can be a part of the fun from anywhere! Virtual racers can run or walk anywhere at their convenience, even on a treadmill. There is no specific starting time or place. Be sure to run the distance and then let us know what your time was. It will be entered into the finish times, however, it will not be eligible for awards.
