INFORMATION FOR 5HR+ MARATHON RUNNERS
If a runner does not make the road cutoff at 11:00am they will be required to run the remainder along the footpath to the finish line. The redirected course on the footpaths is not measured to AIMS standards which means if you do not cross the finish line by 11:00am, your race will not be AIMS-certified.
