HALF MARATHON SPECTATOR INFORMATION
SPECTATOR TIPS
The only way to see runners
during this race is to drive from
spot to spot. If you do, plan for
some traffic congestion at key
spots. Allow extra time to get
from one viewing spot
to another.
Know your athlete’s anticipated
pace so you can estimate when
he or she will arrive at your next
viewing area.
Be a help. Throw a bag in the car
with things like extra socks, an
extra shirt, toilet paper,
Vaseline, sunscreen, ice, or lip
balm just in case your athlete
needs it.

SPECTATOR ZONES
Cheer on your athlete—and all the others! There’s nothing more uplifting than getting a
smile, a thumbs up, a “way to go!” or any encouraging word from a spectator—especially
as the miles pile on and motivation wanes. Cheer, clap, or sing—this is guaranteed to help
motivate your athlete and anyone else who is the recipient of your positive vibes.
