Info
For safety reasons, we still strongly discourage the use of headphones. The safest and best answer is not to use them. If you still choose to use them, you do so at your own risk and must meet the following requirements:
1. Hear traffic
2. Be aware of the sounds around you
3. Be able to hear instructions from course officials when speaking at a reasonable tone (not yelling)
Strikes will be given out if you are unable to hear instructions. Three strikes on any rule may result in disqualification for your entire team.
Tips on safely listening to music
Should you choose to use a personal (or impersonal) listening device, below are some tips:
1. Put the headphones behind your ears rather than in your ears
2. Use one ear bud rather than two
3. Use a device like http://www.safesoundsports.
4. Keep the volume low
5. Use a device like an iPhone or Blackberry on speaker mode

And Our Start Time Is....

Meet Staci McKinnon
I’m Staci McKinnon and am 29 years old. I’m single and recently bought my first house – which is a fixer upper. Its been quite an adventure and I have loved every bit of it. I’m running the Ragnar in place of Cindy Taylor who had to get knee surgery. I ran the race before a few years ago, and it was a great experience. This time, I know it will be even better because I know tips and things that will help make it so.
I started running about 6 years ago – mainly to get help get rid of the 40 lbs that I had gained while serving a mission. J But then I continued to run because it felt good and relieved stress and anxiety. I have run off and on for those 6 years, most recently I've been on the off cycle, so this race has been great motivation to get me running again.
