Lazy Hound Racing strongly suggests to NOT use any headphones, ear gear or similar devices that limit ones ability to hear important event instructions.
* Please be respectful of other runners/walkers on the course.
Please use trash cans located nearby each course water station. If discarding clothing on course, please place at one of the water stations.
We LOVE Dogs! BUT running or walking with dogs is not recommended. If you do bring your dog please start in the back of the pack, and keep your pet on a short leash as to not "clothesline" another runner.
