Follow the Instructions from Race Officials It is imperative that you follow the instructions given to you by the Race Officials. Failure to do so can disqualify you and your entire team.
Wear Your Bib Number Pin your assigned race number to the front of your shirt or shorts. Make sure you are wearing your bib number and not a co-worker's. Do not modify, fold, or deface the number. This can cause the timing chip to fail and your finish time will not be recorded.
Warmup at the Aetna Fitness Zone will start at 5:45pm on the Main Stage The M Cycle Gym Warmup Team will get your blood pumping and get you ready to run or walk the 3.1 miles! So gather up the team to kick it off right! Warmup begins on the Promenade at 5:45pm. This is earlier than previously scheduled. Getting to the Starting CorralsWith the expected 22,800 participants, it is crucial that you follow all announcements, instructions, and signage to get into the proper starting corrals. The corrals are divided by division. CEOs in the BB&T CEO Division (maroon BB&T numbers) and all seeded runners (with yellow wristbands) line up next, runners line up behind them, and walkers are in the last corral. WALKERS:After the warmup, please WALK TOWARDS THE STAGE and follow the wide sidewalk along the water north towards Bayside Marketplace. Continue along the water until you reach the service road that will take you to the start. This service road is the best and fastest way to get to the WALKER corrals. Volunteers and Stiltwalkers will lead the way. Follow the arrows.
WALKERS SHOULD NOT USE THE PROMENADE
TO GET TO BISCAYNE BLVD. RUNNERS:Runners will use the Promenade to access the front corrals.
