Policy for Selecting University Teams/Unattached/Open and Club Athletes: Meet management intends to limit the field size in each race. We reserve the right to control the number of teams selected based upon the quality and parity of the teams entered in the meet. This policy will allow for an even field of competition without overloading the course. Please note: Due to the limit of field size, a maximum of 7 athletes per team per gender will be allowed to compete in the Gold Championship Race. Make sure you meet the deadlines.

Unattached/Open Runners: Due to the limit of field size, priority will be given to collegiate teams. Therefore, if the field is filled with collegiate teams, you will not be accepted into the Gold Race. All unattached collegiate athletes will be treated as open/club athletes. We will NOT accept late open/club division entries.
