For Four hours Runner safety is everyone’s top priority. The course will be open and supported By CAARA. Please let us know what type of equipment you plan to use ( Mobile HT ¼-Wave Mag-Mount Rubber-Duck etc.) so we have a better idea of where to locate you along the event course per the potential of your equipment. Please let me know if you can staff a communications checkpoint for the event so I can plan staffing positions. If you don’t have a radio, we have loaner radios available with a mag mount that will work in your car by just plugging it into the cigarette lighter socket. If you are unable to be there for the whole race, any amount of time you can give would be helpful.
