Traffic Control and Safety<\/h3>\n

Our\u00a0\u00a0main concern for the runners and walkers is their safety.\u00a0 We will have barricades and volunteers all along the course for traffic control, as well as police in critical areas.\u00a0 However, we also need to be aware of the inconvenience to vehicular traffic and the amount of time we keep our volunteers on the course.\u00a0 Our goal is to open up most of the intersections except for the finish line area by 11:30 am and noon.\u00a0 This should give the\u00a0the 5K and 1.5 mile participants time to finish and the last 10k runners should be off Delaware\u00a0Avenue and inside\u00a0Rotary Park.\u00a0\u00a0We will keep the portion of the Strand to the finish line staffed until 12:00 pm and will keep the finish line open as long as possible.\u00a0 Runners will be informed\u00a0when we open up traffic and we ask you to stay on the proper side of the road for your safety<\/p>\n\t
