This is to ensure safety of all the runners and to facilitate a clean start. We ask all runners to cooperate and make certain they are in the correct corral assignments.

Your time will not start until you cross the pad at the startling line and will not end until you cross the pad at the finish line. So, in essence you do not need to be concerned if you are placed several corrals back off the start line.
