In response to feedback from past participants, and to provide a flatter course, the Run the Bay race committee, in collaboration with the Whitefish Bay Police Department and Department of Public Works, is excited to introduce a new out-and-back route this year.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT RULES:
- Participants running from the start line to the turnaround point (“outbound runners”) and participants running from the turnaround point back to the finish line (“inbound runners”) will pass each other in close proximity throughout the race. Accordingly, for runner courtesy and safety, it is essential that all runners follow the colored arrows on the
pavement:- OUTBOUND runners must run atop the BLUE arrows.
- INBOUND runners must run atop the PINK arrows.
- Inbound runners have the right of way. When an outbound runner and an inbound runner approach each other, the outbound runner must move over as much as possible to permit the inbound runner to pass by unimpeded.
- Run between the cones and the curb. Please stay off the grass!
- For participant safety, all walkers and any runners/walkers pushing strollers must remain on the sidewalk. (An exception will be made during the first 2 blocks. Walkers and strollers will begin in the street; but upon turning left onto N. Maitland Court, all walkers and strollers must enter, and remain on, the sidewalk for the duration of the route.)
- Please abide by any verbal instructions provided by police officers, course marshals, and the lead cyclist.
Your cooperation is vital to ensure a safe and enjoyable event for all involved. Thank you for your assistance.
