Q: Are there time cutoffs for the different distances?
A: The roads will be closed from 7:00AM to 12:30PM. We will need to open roads upon direction from the Snohomish County Sheriff.

Full Marathon will have 5 hours to complete the course and half marathon will have 4.5 hours. The 5 hr. limit is how long we are permitted to keep Lowell-River Road closed to vehicular traffic. After 5 hrs, you will have to move to the side of the road.
