Cupless

In an effort to reduce waste and litter, we hope to have your assistance in going cupless. We request that you bring your preferred means of containing water during your run and at the aid stations. We will have some Hydrapak SpeedCup ($5) for sale at check-in.

Please note that there will no longer be pre-filled cups of hydration at the aid stations. In case you really need a disposable cup, please request one from the aid station volunteers. We ask that you use only one. Thank you!
