A pacer may also be picked up at Fish Hatchery (31.66 miles) or William B. Pond (41.54 miles) to the finish.

Runners may be accompanied by no more than one pacer at a time.

Pacers may eat and drink from the aid station tables. Pacers must enter and exit with their runner. No muling is allowed.

No dogs, no bikes, no horses.

Drop Bag Return

We will try very hard to expedite drop bag retrieval in a timely manner. However, we ask for your patience. Here is an approximate time schedule of drop bag returns. Please make a note of this.

Negro Bar drop bags will not return to the finish line until after the aid station closes and cleans up. Estimate: 2:30 P.M.

William B Pond drop bags will not return to the finish line until after the aid station closes and cleans up(Aprroximately 5:30 P.M.

Drop bags must be picked up at the finish line by 6:30 P.M.

For drop bags that are not picked up, the RD will make every effort to collect them and keep them for 7 days.  If for some reason you can not pick up your drop bag at the finish line, you need to contact the RD to have the bag mailed back to you at your expense of $30.  If the RD does not hear back from you within 7 days the drop bags will be donated to a local charity.
