      We are trying to limit the traffic along the route as race volunteers will be setting up stations in the morning. We have been graciously offered the use of busses to safely transport participants to the starting line. Information of bussing will be forthcoming.

​

Will there be aid stations along the route?

      The Runners High Half Marathon will have aid stations at the start and finish lines as well as along the course. The first at the intersection of  Highway 150 and County Road 173 @ approximately Mile 1.2. Aid stations will continue at Miles 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12.

 

      There will be one aid station along the route for the 5k near the half-way point as well as at the finish line.

​

What is provided at the aid stations?

     Aid stations for the Runners High races are not your average aid stations. These stations are stocked with everything you need to be successful on your run. Aid stations will have first aid materials such as sun screen, blister doughnuts, and anti-chafe creme (if you know, you know). Each station has water and sports drinks. All Half Marathon aid stations will have water and sports drinks. The starting line will have bananas, granola bars, Clif Bloks, water, and sports drinks. Aid Stations 4, 6, 8 and 10 will have GU gels. Aid Station 6 will have Uncrustable PB & Js. Restrooms for the half marathon are located at the start line, mile 4, 8, and 10. There will be restrooms at the Finish Line. If you arrive at any aid station after the volunteer cutoff time then the aid stations will still have supplies but may not be manned by volunteers.

​

Will the highway be closed for the race?

       Highway 150 will not be closed for the race. Safety is and will be our number one priority during the race. You must run on the left side of the road against traffic the entire race. There will not be road closures so please be alert and aware and stay as far as you can from the white line. Wyoming Highway Patrol and the Uinta County Sheriff's Office will be helping to patrol the area. Race volunteers will be monitoring the course for issues. Once the course enters city limits, you will run on the side walk. The City of Evanston has approved a parade route through town. Evanston Police Offices will be handling traffic control within city limits.

​

What is the cutoff time for the half marathon?

      The cutoff time for the course is 4 hours.
