There will be a medical trailer at the start line with a paramedic, EMT and physician available. Athletico Physical Therapy will be located at the �nish line to aid with stretching on race day. St. Ansgar rescue will be located at the 13.1 mile mark to assist with any medical needs.

MEDICAL SUPPORT

Racecourse Information:

Main to Main uses the Event Alert System (EAS) to communicate infor-mation on current course conditions on race day. Participants and specta-tors should familiarize themselves with the alert level colors.

These adverse conditions are most usually related to heat stress. However, the system could also be used to warn of other potentially dangerous situations, such as cold, storms, tornadoes, or even non-weather situations like auto accidents or �res on or near the course.

This system, and the scienti�c measurements behind it, was originally developed by the United States military, as a guide to the level of heat stress soldiers might experience during training exercises in varying weather conditions.

EVENT ALERT SYSTEM

Complimentary Showers are provided for race participants on Saturday, August 24th at the Cedar River Complex located at 809 Sawyer Drive Osage, IA.

SHOWERS

- Bib must be visible on your outermost layer with the 4 corners pinned.- Bibs must be �lled out completely on the back for identi�cation purposes.
