A. Event Description
The Ragnar Relay Adirondacks is a long distance running relay race that will start in Saratoga Springs, NY
on Friday,September 22,2017 and finish in Lake Placid on Saturday,September 23, 2017.
• We anticipate 360 teams to participate in the event. Each team is comprised of 6-12 individuals
and 1-2 vehicles.Therefore,we anticipate about 4,200 participants and 700 vehicles to be
involved in the race.
• During the relay,each team member runs three legs. Only one person from each team will be
running on the course at a time.There will only be 360 runners on the course at any given time.
• Start times are staggered,beginning at 5:00 AM and will continue until 2:00 PM. The objective
for the staggered start time is to spread the participants out so that the impact on local traffic
will be minimal to avoid large groups of runners clustering together.
• The entire group of runners will typically be spread out over a span of 30-40 miles.
• Runners are instructed to obey all traffic laws and regulations.The race course will utilize
sidewalks,running paths, bike lanes,and road shoulders.
• We do not foresee a need to close any lanes of traffic or close any running paths to pedestrians
or bike traffic.
•
B. Date and hours of the event:
September 22,2017
We anticipate runners in the Town of Queensbury from 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM.
C.Exchange Points
Teams pass the baton from one runner to the next at minor and major exchange points.An exchange
includes portable toilets,an exchange area,and traffic cones used for crowd control.A minor exchange
is where a single van from each team will briefly stop to switch runners.There are 30 minor exchanges
along the course.A major exchange occurs every 6 exchanges and is where teams will pass the baton to
the next van.There are 5 major exchanges along the course.
Ragnar is in the process of obtaining permission from the various locations for the use of exchanges.
D.Safety,Emergencies,and First Aid
Safety is our top priority. Runners are educated prior to the race concerning event and safety rules as
follows:
• Each team must have at least six reflective vests and two flashlights. Runners starting their legs
during designated night hours must be wearing a reflective vest,tail/butt light and holding a
flashlight or headlamp.
• Any team-member spectator must wear a reflective vest during these hours when outside their
vehicle.
• Runners are required to obey all traffic laws and we instruct them to use the sidewalk when
available.
• Ragnar provides a Race Command number during the race. Runners may text Race Command
for any concerns or problems out on the course.
• In case of emergency all runners and staff will call 911.Then contact our Race Command
number(661-Ragnarl)to let race staff know of the emergency.
• We have 8-12 Ragnar Staff and trained volunteers on the course at all times monitoring the
course.
• A Medic Station and Medical Staff will be located at each major exchange location. These Medic
Stations will be equipped to handle heat exhaustion,and all minor sport injuries.We hire EMT
intermediate personnel or above,either through a medical staffing agency or directly through
local hospitals or emergency service personnel.
• In the event of a major medical emergency(i.e.any life threatening condition or injury that
requires immediate medical attention)we instruct runners/volunteers to first call 911.
• In addition to our own first aid services on the course,we list the local emergency rooms near
the course,along with their address and phone number in the race packets.
E.Officer services
Police Officers are stationed throughout the course in specific locations according to the safety demand
and traffic flow throughout their jurisdiction. Ragnar will work with local and State officers to staff as
needed for the race.
F.Traffic impact/traffic control
All traffic control measures are to be set up, maintained and removed by ADMAR Company.We do not
anticipate any traffic control in Warren County.
G.Waste receptacles
Dumpsters will be placed at each of our major exchange locations.All trash is taken to the majors.
Volunteers and staff will sweep in exchange and make sure they are left clean.
H.Signage plan
Along the course there will be course signs that communicate to the runners which direction to go,on
what side of the road to run,which exchange they are at,etc. Directional signs are only placed at change
of direction intersections.The signs are 42"High,18"Wide,.25"Thick and are made of corrugated
plastic. Each sign will be secured to a delineator post barricade.An example of such a sign can be seen
in the picture below.
