Race will be held regardless of rain, sleet, snow, or hail unless the safety of runners is in jeopardy. Registration will be absolutely limited to 1500 runners to prevent overcrowding in the HS. Register early for the best price. See www.aarclub.com/frostbite for more race details, including awards, directions, course descriptions, etc. You may also check Run The Day for more details.
Important information:
So, around 8:45 am, when the soft closure (Race Route) occurs, specific streets will be closed to accommodate the race. However, if there are pauses or breaks in the race, some roads may be temporarily opened to allow regular traffic flow. This approach helps balance the needs of the race event with the convenience of local traffic during intervals when the race is not actively using the affected streets.
Fire police will follow the last participant(s), and as that person/group passes through the closures, those streets will be opened back up for normal traffic flow. From past races, the roads may only be closed for about an hour to an hour and a half.
Please look at the attached race map for the streets impacted during the race.
