ARRIVAL:
Teams: Upon
arrival, each team will report to its assigned tent location (which is located
on the softball field, which is adjacent to the start/finish
line. Each team’s coach will be responsible for ensuring
that their runners do not intermingle and maintain social distancing prior to
the races starting. Additionally, each team will need to pick up its race
packet from the concession stand. Athletes and coaches are to wear
masks upon arrival. Be aware that since the course does cross the road
twice, those driving absolutely need to factor in race times and potentially
being stopped as runners cross the road.
Spectators: To
limit the amount of people in a given area, tent city is for coaches and
athletes only. This means no spectators will be allowed at the
finish line. We apologize, but sacrifices must be made to keep
people as safe as possible. Spectators can go in the upper field
(which is forty percent of the course) or be along the road. Please
maintain social distancing guidelines. Spectators are also required
to wear a mask to gain admission.
AWARDS: there
will be no awards ceremony. We will award champion and runner up
team trophies for the varsity race, along with 1-10 for
individuals. Awards will be mailed.
Miscellaneous: per
WVSSAC guidelines, there will be no communal water source.
Race
cost: $100.00 for a full team. There will be no
individual runners. Please make checks payable to WPHS Athletics
