No Pets. Please leave all pets at home. We have had issues of dogs getting loose in the past and tripping runners.
Spectators should take great caution to not cross over the running surface during races, but if you must, please be courteous to the runners and give PLENTY of time before you cross or wait until they pass you. Please encourage others to do the same.
Spectators should not go under or over any flagging set anywhere on the course, including the finish area.
Spectators should remain behind the areas marked on the finish stretch at all times.
Please take all trash with you as you leave, and help by taking any you may see around.
The top 30 Individuals and top 5 teams in each age division qualify for the USATF National Junior Olympic Championships in Shelbyville, IN (December 13). No runners outside the Top 30 can advance unless on a Top 5 team. For teams, as long as an athlete is associated with a top 5 team (within their USATF membership), they do not have to run in the region meet and can be part of the team for Nationals. In this case, the athlete must be registered and listed as part of the team’s up to 8-person roster for the regional meet. A team beyond the top 5 may also qualify if they have 5 runners in the top 30.
