Got Questions?
Here are some answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
1. How am I going to get my race shirt?
Another great question! We will be having a shirt/packet pickup at Roadrunner Sports in Westminster on Thursday, October 3rd, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm.
2. Are dogs allowed?
As much as I know you love to run with your furry friend, we ask that dogs (aside from any service animals) stay home. We ask this for several reasons. First, part of the course is an out-and-back section and the path isn't super wide. We don't want to impede the progress of participants or cause any issues with dodging pets/leashes. Second, (this one is near and dear to me personally) because this is a family event, there are always lots of kids. As wonderful as your dog might be, there are children (like my son) who are very scared of unfamiliar dogs, and I have to take that very seriously. Thanks for your understanding.
3. Do you allow strollers?
If you are going to run with a stroller, please start near the back and stay to the right of the path.
4. What’s the course like?
We will start in front of Lifetime and head west. At the end of the parking lot, go north/right. There will be cones and course marshals to help guide you. You'll get on the path and turn east/right and do a counterclockwise loop before heading out to the out and back section. On your way back you will do a clockwise loop before heading back to the finishline.
5. Do you still have questions?
Feel free to contact Ashley Wilkinson at awilkinson@bigwavesinc.org, Big Waves Race Director, if you have any questions.
