Further Information from the organizing school:

• Parents need to stay in the appropriate areas, it is difficult to supervise children if the adults are wandering over various parts of the course. Children tend to follow and the runners can become confused about where they should be running.

• There is limited parking at the school.  Be prepared to park a few blocks away.  There will be a coned off area for buses.

• Children should be wearing appropriate footwear, but no spiked running shoes.

• Parents are not to be seated with the children who are running.

• The school playground will be an out of bounds area for all children while the event is running.
