  • Throwaway long-sleeve or mylar blanket for 3am corral wait

  • Lightweight cap and sunglasses for sunrise miles

What you should know

  • Pre-dawn 5am start means 3am bus from resorts; corral access typically closes 30 minutes before gun time.
  • Course enforces a 16-minute-per-mile pace requirement; sweepers will pull runners who fall behind.
  • Costumes are encouraged but masks covering the full face and props resembling weapons are prohibited.
  • Expect humid conditions even at 15°C; stop at every aid station early rather than waiting for thirst.
  • Bib and race shirt must be picked up in person at the Health & Fitness Expo before race morning.
