Dear Friends,

Warning: It is possible to get a serious injury in this race. If you run recklessly you'll increase your chances but even if you are careful it's still possible to get tripped up or slip on something. This could result in an immobilizing injury that could put you a few hours away from medical attention. It could mean expensive medical care and an extended period of time away from work. To run this race you have to accept full responsibility for what happens to you. If you don't have health insurance don't do this race. No matter how careful you are plan on falling. The faster you run the more it hurts. You must be at least 18 to run this race.

If you have not run a full marathon on roads or at least a trail half marathon race in the past 5 years don't read any further because those are the qualifications for doing this marathon. We have the right to stop accepting applications any time we feel like it. So send it in early. (continued)
