FAQ

Can I walk the 5-K or half-marathon?

Yes! However, we require participants to finish the event in four hours.

Can I run with my dog?

No! We love canines but please don't run the race with your four-legged friend.

Can I use my skateboard or in-line skates or bring along a baby jogger?

No. We want to keep the course as safe as possible for our participants. Please do not use those - or similar - items during the race.

Can I cheer for my favorite runners along the course?

Absolutely! Please encourage your friends and family members with signs and cheers. Take a look at the course map. The course follows the LakeTrail which flows through Storm Lake's beautiful parks and offers plenty of shelters and shade.

How does the half-marathon relay work?

Half-marathon relay teams consist of two runners. The first runner starts the race and runs 6.1 miles at which point the runner's partner continues the course and runs the remaining seven miles. The running partners will exchange bracelets at the 6.1 mile mark. Transportation is provided for the runners to get to and from the exchange points.

Can I use my mp3 player while I run the race?

Yes!
