Easy return to Lawrence School, your home, or where you’re staying Race Weekend. Registered runners will be contacted with more information closer to race week.

Unregistered Runners cause many problems: they disrupt the start, crowd the course, infringe on the rights of official runners, and cause congestion at the finish. Please try to discourage anyone who plans to run unofficially. We realize many want to run in person, and we would like to accommodate everyone, but the narrow course and with restrictions from our Public Safety Team, we can only have 10,000 runners on the course. We hope you will discourage “bandits.”
Toilet Facilities: There will be numerous portable toilets where the buses are boarding and throughout the start and finish areas. Please be considerate of private property and use the portable toilets. There will also be toilet facilities along the course, around two, two-and-a-half, and three miles.

Water: Poland Spring water will be available at the start, along the course, and at the finish line.
Gatorade: Gatorade will be available at the official Gatorade rehydration station at mile four and at the finish.
Race Numbers: Please wear your number on the front of your shirt. Do not fold or bend your number, bending or folding your number will damage the embedded timing device, with the potential of not being recorded as having completed the race. If your pre-printed emergency contact sticker is missing, please complete the emergency information form on the back of your number at your earliest convenience.
Special Needs and/or Requests: These requests must be made no later than 30 days prior to Race Day so they may be vetted by our office, our operations team and if needed, our Falmouth Public Safety team. Please submit your request to [email protected] or call the office at 508-540-7000.
*Reminder, there is no number pick-up on race day.*
*PLEASE DO NOT SWITCH, GIVE AWAY, OR ALTER YOUR NUMBER: This creates problems in compiling the age-group results, especially if a male uses a female number or if a young runner uses a number assigned to an older runner. * If you cover or alter your number, sell it or give it away, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND UNABLE TO REGISTER FOR NEXT YEAR’S RACE.
