Aid Stations
We have experienced aid station captains and volunteers ready to help you at our nine aid stations. Food and drink will look a bit differently than in the past. To reduce contamination for both volunteers and runners, all food will be served by our aid station volunteers. Just tell them what you want and they will serve you up with snacks. For drinks, all runners will be asked to hold their bottles or bladders and volunteers can fill you up with water or electrolyte.
There will be no disposable cups on the course, so please bring your own to use at the aid stations.
While all of our aid station captains and volunteers are awesome, keep in mind that three of the stations are remote hike-ins (well, four really, because you visit the Twins twice). That means the water and supplies were carried in, either by backpack, horseback, or powered wheel barrows.
