WEATHER ON RACE DAY
April in Los Angeles is typically mild and sunny, in the 70s. Heat waves are possible and temps could get into the 90s. Rain is also possible and the event will go on, rain or shine, with park approval.
COURSE MARKINGS
On race day, the course is marked with surveyor ribbons and arrows on the ground. There is always a possibility that hikers may tamper with course markings and this cannot be controlled. Always keep your eyes alert to your whereabouts. It is unlike that you will get lost during the race but if you notice you are not seeing arrows or ribbons, simply back-track to the last mark you saw and follow the course markings from there.
COURSE SWEEPERS
Sweepers will head out from the starting line and will stay behind the last participant. Sweepers will pull ribbons and yes, they will actually carry brooms to sweep arrows. Because course markings may be removed behind you, it is important that you always move forward on the race course, to avoid getting lost.
