What should you check before leaving?
- Your category day: Saturday for 5K/10K; Sunday for 21K/42K.
- Your current start instructions: use the organizer schedule and runner guide, not a screenshot or third-party directory.
- Your route and access: inspect the organizer route plus current road-closure or transport notices.
- Your tested plan: shoes, breakfast and fueling should already be familiar. Race morning is not the time for a new protocol.
- Your safety boundary: follow organizer and medical-team instructions. This page is not medical clearance or emergency advice.
Course and pacing boundary
The old version of this page called the event “hilly” without current organizer evidence. That label has been removed. Use the official route for your category; the reviewed text did not establish one trustworthy elevation total or difficulty label across all four distances.
When heat, congestion or course conditions differ from your expectation, use practiced effort instead of forcing a fragile split target. The running pace calculator can help you understand scenarios, but a calculated pace does not override live conditions.
Fueling and hydration boundary
Use only a fueling pattern you have already tolerated in training. The marathon fueling planner is a planning aid, not an individualized medical prescription. Follow official aid information and seek qualified care for symptoms, illness or medical risk.
After the finish
Do not assume a next edition, date or route until SCORE Marathon announces it. Once a new finish line is official, use the training start-date calculator to see when a 26-week build would begin, then choose a plan that matches your current consistency and recovery—not the urgency of a calendar.
Training is physical. Becoming is personal. Execute the day in front of you, then choose what changes you next.
