How to Prepare

SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY

Roads are closed to traffic during the duration of the event. Please run or walk within the permitted times.
Run respectfully and share the road or path.
You are responsible for your own safety – be alert.
Leave ample room between you and other runners.
Run on the right side and allow faster runners room to pass on the left.
Alert runners if you intend to pass – “ON YOUR LEFT.”
Move to the side for emergency vehicles.

All your friends. The Worst Day of the Year Run is way more fun when friends and family are with you.
Camera. Take a share photos through our Flickr group.
Ibuprofen or a similar pain reliever.
Snacks to meet your specific dietary needs. Rest stops are stocked with light snacks and sugary treats. It’s a good idea to pack your favorites so you can stay fueled on course.
A costume! (costumed participants earn a free beer)
Sunscreen… maybe zinc oxide for your nose
