PLEASE NOTE, MON!
The REGGAE RUN is an outside, popular event and as such, you are advised to be prepared and wear appropriate clothing and footwear to meet the forecasted weather conditions and potential crowded situations. The REGGAE RUN organizers and volunteer staff will attempt to accommodate you as much as possible to make your REGGAE RUN experience the best it can be. 
Thanks, Mon!

GEAR STORAGE?
The Reggae Run cannot store gear, as we do not have the capacity to do so for 4,000+ runners/walkers and this is not a longer race like a marathon or half-marathon. Options are to keep extra clothes in your car or put them in a bag (with your name on it!...) and stash it near the start or finish. Obviously, you should not put valuables in stash bags, and the Reggae Run cannot be responsible for them.

CHILDREN & STROLLERS
For everyone’s safety, we recommend runners who choose to push children along in a jogging stroller line-up near the walkers. Signs will be posted this year for walkers.

The safety of your family is very important to us, therefore, we recommend families with young children and strollers be prepared for large crowds and long lines for food and drinks. The Jammin' Party is recommended for adults only. Families with young children and strollers should take this into consideration when attending our event.

PETS
We love pets, but we are sorry, for everyone's safety, please leave your pets (dogs, cats, monkeys, etc) at home. The course and party are very crowded and our liability insurance won't allow it. Sorry, mon and thanks for your understanding.
