AID STATIONS/PERSONAL BAG DELIVERY and RETURN
The locations and distances are:
Aid #1-HALF MARATHON Mile 4.2. Intersection of Spruce Creek Road/Wheeler Trail
Aid #2-HALF MARATHON at Mile 7. Intersection of Wheeler Trail/Peak 9 Road
Aid Stations will be supplied with Water, Skratch Labs Energy Drink, Honey Stinger Energy Foods and salty snacks.
Water and Skratch drink will be dispensed in large drink coolers. Racers may refill personal hydration systems and/or use cups that we will provide.
We will provide Bag Drop to/from the Aid Stations. Simply bring your personal items CLEARLY MARKED with your NAME and the AID STATION you wish to have it delivered to and we will drive it out there for you.
Personal bags MUST be delivered to the Start/Finish by 7:00AM the day of the race for you to take advantage of this service. You MAY ALSO drop the evening before between 3:00-6:00pm at The Maggie; Start/Finish.
At the actual Aid Stations, personal bags will be set aside and you are responsible for your own feed.
The key to the aid stations is simple…Use Them! You’ll be glad you did.
Each Aid Station will have radio communication. If there is an issue on course, get to the next aid station if you can. If not, sit tight and wait for course sweep to arrive.
Course sweep will depart immediately after the last start wave.
If you grab a snack at an aid station, we ask that you do one of two things:
1. Consume as much as you want/need in close proximity to the aid station. If you choose this option, you may discard your empty bottle or wrapper in this vicinity and we’ll gladly clean up and lug it out for you.
2. If you choose to “grab and go”, then please hang onto wrappers and until the next aid station and discard them there.
You may also leave any items you wish at an aid station and we will bring it back to the Start/Finish for you. Some aid stations return quite late in the day. We leave unclaimed personal items overnight at the Start/Finish in a bin. You may come grab later in the day or first thing Monday morning.
