No. Dogs are not allowed on any of the courses.
Can I bring my baby in a stroller/jogger?
Strollers/joggers will only be allowed on the 5K Fun Run/Walk course. We ask that walkers and parties with wheelchairs and strollers start toward the end of the line to reduce crowding and allow runners to achieve their best time.
Can I bring my bike/skates/skateboard?
No wheels are allowed on any course except for registered wheelchairs and official course vehicles.
Can I bring my MP3 player?
WIM will allow headsets on the course only if it does not pose a safety risk. For safety reasons, it may be necessary for a course official to ask you to remove your headset/earphones during the race. You are required to comply or face disqualification and removal from the course.
