Why do walkers have to stay on the sidewalk until the lead runners pass?
This rule is for your safety. When walkers begin at 7:00, there is still active traffic on the race course. Even when the roads are officially closed, lead cars and handcyclists will be moving very quickly on the roadway and cannot stop/swerve for pedestrians. When the lead runners pass, it is now safe for walkers to walk on the designated lane(s). Disrespect to local police, race staff, and volunteers will not be tolerated.
WILL THERE BE AID STATIONS?
Yes. There will be five aid stations along the course at miles 2.5, 4, 5.5, 7, and 8.5. Aid stations will have snacks, water, and electrolyte mix. Port-a-johns will also be stationed along the course.

For your safety, The Wyoming Valley Run does not recommend listening to music and headphones during the race.

There is a four-hour time limit. The course will be shut down at 12:00 p.m. If you are still on the course after the time limit, you run at your own risk.

Yes. The Wyoming Valley Run has a prize purse of $10,000. See the Awards + Elite page for a list of cash prizes.

Yes. The awards ceremony will be on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre.
IS THERE A RAIN DATE?
No. The race will be held rain or shine.
