On our normal course, strollers are not allowed due to space issues. The bike path can get tight and we ask that you do not run with strollers for the safety of all runners. Strollers are allowed on the 1k and 1 mile courses.

Course Cutoffs
2021- there are no course cut offs but you must start within the designated time window. If you are doing a longer distance we strongly encourage you to start at an earlier time.
On our normal course, the course will be open until 3:00pm. This gives 15k runners 2 hours to complete the course. This is an average pace of 12:52 per mile. If you would like to participate in the 15k but are worried about meeting the course cut off time please contact us. Best in the West Events wants everyone to meet their goals and we will do what we can to help support you! We will have a 12:30pm start time available for walkers or anyone worried they will be close to the cut off.
