The Event Alert System (EAS) communicates the status of event conditions to participants leading up to and on race day. The levels range from Low (green) to Moderate (yellow) to High (red) to Extreme (black) based on a variety of factors, including weather conditions.

• Email and website communications during race week will inform participants of the current Event Alert System status and provide preparation tips based on advance weather forecasts.

• Updates will be made onsite at Packet Pick-up and on race day.

• On race day, the current Event Alert System status is communicated via public address announcements and color-coded signs/flags at the start and finish areas and along the course at each Aid Station.

All participants should familiarize themselves with the Event Alert System prior to the race, remain alert for directions from race officials and announcers and take precautions to prepare properly for varying weather conditions on race day.
