General Note: LITTER
This trail run/walk is not like a big city marathon where you might have a cleanup crew that follows behind the runners to pick up debris. We rely on the runners to be responsible for disposing of their refuse properly. Trash boxes will be placed about 100 yards in either direction from each other, so please use them. Please do not leave cups, gel wrappers, clothing or other items anywhere on the trail.
Please, no littering anywhere on the course.
