What if I am stopped on course by law enforcement?

At two intersections, Hwy 121 and Burndale and Old Burndale and Napa Rd. there is a possibility you will be stopped by California Highway Patrol officers if vehicle traffic is backed up. The stops are typically only 20 to 45 seconds and rarely affect the front or back of the pack so elite runners are not stopped. A water station and porta-potties are located at the intersection. You are not allowed to deduct the time stopped, so use the quick break to rest and rehydrate.

What happens if I cannot finish the race or become injured on course?

Medical aid will be provided at designated aid stations along the course and will be equipped to provide basic first aid with limited supplies of band-aids, tape, ace bandages, ice and Vaseline.  For assistance, look for volunteers in Red shirts. Ambulance service will be available at the Start Line and will follow the runners to the Finish Area. There will also be services at the Finish Area to provide advanced medical aid, if needed.  Participants who require medical evaluation on the course may be transported to a local hospital.

Transportation for non-finishers without medical problems to the finish area will be provided via the SAG vehicle.  In the event you cannot finish the race, please make your way to the nearest aid station and ask for SAG assistance.  The SAG vehicle will be following the final runner/walker and will pick up as they pass aid stations.
