Attention Participants: Age and Pace Requirements
Please note that the all runners must be at least 16 years old as of race day September 14, 2008 in order to participate. Concerning pace guidelines, note that due to the fact that our scenic running course uses a large part of busy Lake Shore Drive and that there are numerous churches, harbors, a golf course and other institutions and organizations along our race route, we ask that our runners keep a minimum per mile pace. In an effort to open the course back up to the community, participants are required to race at a 13 minute mile pace. The expected finish time at this pace is 2:50:21. Runners exceeding that pace may be asked by a course marshal or Chicago Police officer to board the trail bus. Thank you for your understanding.
This *shouldn't* be an issue for me, as I'm expecting to finish well in advance of when they start kicking people off the course (right now, I'm in the 2:15 corral). But still.... How much would that suck?!
