FAQ

While it would be rare to encounter wildlife, it is possible. Please don’t approach wildlife. The most common animals you are likely to encounter are coyotes and deer, which are likely to run from you. Bike marshals will be patrolling the course, on the lookout for wildlife, but in the unlikely event that you encounter a rattlesnake or a skunk, please give them a wide berth and notify someone at the next aid station. If you are bitten by a snake, move away from it, then stop moving, remove any constricting items near the affected area, keep the bite lower than the heart and seek assistance from another participant or race marshal to get immediate medical assistance from the closest medical aid station.After the race, is there a place to shower and where should I go to meet with other runners?

The Scottsbluff Family YMCA at 22 S. Beltline Hwy in Scottsbluff has showers available for our runners. Please show your race bib number for access, and bring your own towel. Our AFTER PARTY is located at Flyover Brewing Company, 1824 Broadway in Scottsbluff, from 1 - 6pm. Runners and volunteers receive a free beverage - just show your volunteer shirt or runner shirt or medal!May I bring my dog on the course and in the finish area?

We love our pets too, but no. For the safety of other participants, your pets, and wildlife in the Monument area, as well as out of respect for private land and National Park land, we cannot allow pets on the course. City of Gering ordinance does not allow dogs in Five Rocks Amphitheater.Are bicycles, handcarts, strollers, or other wheeled vehicles allowed?

A portion of the course is on dirt road, so for your safety and the safety of all participants, we do not allow strollers, handcarts, accompanying bicycles, or other wheeled devices. For more info, see our course descriptions page, Note: an important aspect of course safety is our bike marshal team. Bike marshals are clearly identified as part of the race personnel.
