BIB/SHIRT PICKUP

This will be at the trailhead at the far end of the football field where the finish line will also be.

 

COURSE INFORMATION

The course for the most part is a out and back style course. It will begin in front of Weller field little past where you go into the stadium to pay. There is a yellow "Watch Children" sign that will serve as the start line. From there you run straight very briefly before making the first right hand turn between the field and friendship park. You will run to the end of the road then make a right going onto the bridge that is the start of the Ligonier Valley Trail. The bridge is about .25 miles into the race. From there you will run the entire Ligonier Valley trail. You will cross two roads both will have someone there stopping traffic so you don’t have to stop if a vehicle would be coming. The end of the trail is 1.62 mile from the start. At the end of the trail there is a sign with history of a train derailment that happened many years ago in the area, it’s a big white sign. Run behind that sign not in front you can see how the trail is worn behind the sign as a turn around point. As you circle around the sign you will head back the way you came. Following the exact same route you took heading out. There will be a water stop at the trailhead by the baseball field if you need a drink you pass it right at that 1.5-1.55 point into the race and again at the 1.7-1.75 mark heading back so you pass it twice in a short period of time. Please keep trash to the water stop area. As you come back over the bridge you will make a right hand turn staying in the lower parking lot. Do not run up in between the field and park as you did to start the race. The finish is in the lower end parking lot. There will be signs or someone telling you where to go, you’ll be able to see the finish line as you come over the bridge. So it wont be a issue. The exact finish line is at the batting cages at the lower end parking lot area. The exact finish line is inline with the first batting cages home plate, if you want to practice the course those are the markers to use.

 

It’s a pretty flat course and for the most part straight. You’ll be able see pretty good in front and behind you for a good distance the whole race. So, you’ll be able to tell your placement as you race. This being January 5th be prepared for all weather conditions. The trail will not be plowed. We do not have permission to do so. Take that into consideration when prepping day of. We will do our best to make sure the trail is safe. But we cant control the weather so there may be snow, ice, slush, puddles on the trail that time of year. Dress accordingly.

PARKING

Will be how you normally would for a game or to use the playground.

If your not familiar with the area there is plenty of parking between Friendship Park and Weller field on the left hand side going down as well as a few spots at the end. But at the end that’s where finish line is so we strongly discourage use of the lower end parking lot if you have to leave before awards are all given out because the lower end will be blocked off so you wont be able to get out.

Also more parking in front of the field and through local streets.

 

RULES

We ask no pets be brought on the course or around the event. We love animals but not everyone is comfortable around them. Pets also can become a trip hazard and anyone violating this rule will be given D.Q. Actual service animals are permitted.

Headphones are allowed. Please be courteous to fellow runners and listen at a reasonable volume so you can hear other runners coming or calling out if they are passing you. Strollers are allowed but again be respectful of other participant’s and do not impede anyone’s progress.

We DO NOT mail awards. Stick around to receive your award. We do not allow you to come and pick it up at your convenience either after the race. We understand you may have to leave early for work or family obligations so be an adult and get with us beforehand if you absolutely must leave early. We highly discourage having someone pick yours up during the awards because again you should have seen us before leaving and not everyone has that luxury to have someone there. We believe as a running community we all need to support one another in this community as it grows with each race. That support includes all the way through the award ceremony. We all need to celebrate the accomplishments of every participant at all events we attend and the hard work that goes into each person’s training to get them from start to finish. That's why we want you to stick around. It’s nice to have people cheer others on as they finish. 

No smoking, alcohol or drug use is permitted in any area the race will be using this includes parking lots, staging area, race course or restrooms. These are our rules along with rules of the trail and for us to get permission. Remember this is a kid friendly event where young lungs are at play along with the possibility of adults with health issues. We are trying to make this event safe and comfortable for everyone.

No throwing any trash/garbage along the course. Whatever you start with you have to end with. The only exception to throwing trash away is at the water stop at that garbage can there.

No Bandit Runners

 

SHIRT POLICY: 

To receive a shirt, you must purchase the $5 add on during registration. That registration must be complete by December 15th at 8pm. No exceptions. Extras will not be ordered for those missing the shirt deadline or registering day of. After the race, shirts of runners that did not show up will be sold for $5 to those runners that signed up on race day. No shirts will be ordered after the race and along with swag, they will not be mailed.

 

We do not personally offer refunds, cancellations or transfers at this time. This is a benefit for the Ligonier Borough Fire Company. If you cannot make it we thank you for your donation. Run signup does offer insurance for a couple more dollars for races they host and we enabled this feature for this race so if you want you can purchase insurance while registering but it does not go thru us directly it goes thru runsignup.

 

TIMING:

Gun Timing start with a chip finish, unless there is a strict covid restriction policy then the race will go to a starting mat time trial event with runners being spread out at the start. Race will not be cancelled unless a natural disaster.

 

MISC:

Please be respectful of the trail, course and parking areas, along with fellow runners, volunteers and spectators. We are hoping to continually have this race on a yearly basis so it’s important we respect the trail to be allowed to use it in the future. It's a super nice trail.

There will be a photo op area near the start of the race for you to take pictures. That way you and your friends before and after the race can take some pictures to remember the event and memories you made. Also I will be taking pictures at the finish line and will try to have trail cameras set up along the course to get you while your racing. Will also be filming the finish line weather permitting.

We will have a couple Port A Johns set up near registration/finish line area.

Photos of neat things along the course that you can potentially see, videos of where to park along with the most up to date information will be on the Facebook event page. This will also include an elevation chart, pictures of awards, shirts and bibs once designs are finished. I have added MapMyRun as well to this registration page for you to see and use.
