BE ADVISED: Runners will be asked to complete a COVID-19 self-screening before racing (see here: https://www.mmdhd.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/COVID-19-Workplace-Health-Screening.pdf). For everyone's safety, all participants and attendees will be expected to bring their own water and refreshments to the race. It will also be required that all attendees, participants, and volunteers follow Michigan mandated social distancing and masking procedures. The Race Director reserves the right to change this to a virtual race in the event of emergency restrictions due to the COVID-19 virus. Of course, we would greatly prefer to see everyone on the course on Independence Day!
