• Head Phones - All courses for the Spokane Marathon, Marathon Relay, Half-Marathon and 10K course are not closed to traffic and for your safety Head Phones are not allowed.
• The Spokane marathon and half marathon travel through much of the Spokane area, quite a bit of it through neighborhoods. As you are in your final preparations for your race, please consider reminding your friends and family who are going to travel around the course to cheer for you of a few considerations for the people living in those neighborhoods and the other runners in the race:
• Be considerate of all runners—don’t drive along with the runners exposing them to your exhaust. Please park well off the road and cheer from the sidelines.
• When you park in a neighborhood, please park where you won’t intrude on the neighbors. For example- Don’t park in driveways, don’t park in their flower beds, and if they come out to ask you to do something, don’t swear at them and call them names (Yes! This has all happened!)
• Please don’t tell the neighbors that they can’t drive on the streets during the race. The roads are open, and we must share the road with the cars. Otherwise our permits won’t be renewed.
• Treat their neighborhood as you would want yours treated if this were happening in your area.

• One rule that many people aren’t aware of is the rule of illegal aid. This is true in all races where they give awards. Runners need to use the aid stations only for their aid (or carry what they need with them). If you are getting water, gel, or any other aid from someone other than aid station workers, you are actually getting illegal aid. You are getting help that others in the race aren’t able to get. Now, if you are just trying to finish, chances are people won’t notice that your spouse is meeting you every half mile and giving you the secret potion that you need. However, if you are vying for an age-group award, it may become an issue. Technically, according to USATF and RRCA rules (which are the rules we abide by), this is grounds for disqualification. The marathon committee’s hope is that everyone on the course will act with integrity and finish the race within these rules. We have had to deal with this issue once, and would rather not have to do so again.

Plan for cool, crisp temperatures at the start line - around 36 Degrees. Please check the race day weather forecast when you get into town and plan to dress accordingly.

• High average for October 59 Degrees
• Low average for October 36 Degrees

Water and sports drink will be available approximately every two miles.

• Awards may be picked up at Runners Soul, 221 N. Wall for 30 days after the race
