Your child will be kept in the secure finishing corral until an adult picks them up. They are not allowed to leave the finish corral without an adult.
The course is secure for the entire mile.
Parents are allowed to run with their child in the designated corral. One adult is allowed per registered and they will need to wear the guardian bib (comes with their child’s race bib).
If parents run with their child, they will not run with his or her school.
Corral information will be emailed* to the child one week before the event.
