The Experience
This second annual event is now the final leg of the ChesCo Winter Series (https://runsignup.com/Race/PA/Wayne/ChesCoRaceFest has information on the entire series). The park loop is a fairly flat 1.25 miles and you have the option of a 1/2 Marathon, Full Marathon, 50K, or 4 Person Marathon Relay. The races start in the center of the park and do a prologue partial lap to the perimeter and then loop the park clockwise finishing at the Tot Lot Pavilion. We will have lots of great snacks, drinks, and pizza. It will be a fun and festive atmosphere. Packet pick up will be available race morning starting at 7:30am. This event will be incredibly spectator friendly as runners will pass by the finish area after every 1.25 mile loop. This also makes it easy to use the indoor (heated) bathrooms and change clothes, get your own fluids/foods, etc. Live results will be posted to the results link on RunSignup and we will have a livestream throughout the day on our YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/@2lraceservices so that family/friends can follow the action from near and far. There will be an 8 hour time limit for the event making it very walker friendly for the half and full marathon (but not the 50K). Information on the full series including the leaderboard at https://runsignup.com/Series/chescoracefest. We will score each event with the points determined by the number of finishers in the event. The marathon will have a 2X point multiplier and 50K will be 3X multiplier.
