Be aware, traffic and parking are very congested at the Finish in Seaside. Use of the free parking shuttle is highly encouraged! (Map included on page 48, in Captain's Packet, and at www.ptchighschoolchallenge.com/race-information)

Team members often run across the Finish Line with their anchor runner who is officially finishing the race. If your team chooses to do so, make sure your official leg 36 (anchor) runner leads your team to the Finish Line. This runner will be the one who is credited with an official finish. Note: the Finisher will be running down the Promenade along the seawall to a ramp which slopes down onto the beach. This is near Oceanway Avenue. A special team holding area will allow your team to meet up as the last runner comes down the ramp. Listen for announcements.HOW TO FINISH PROPERLY: your team must turn in a completed Scoring Sheet containing the leg splits and runners’ names at the Scoring Sheet Table (page 55)UPDATED FINISH RESULTS: Results will be produced as often as possible throughout Saturday.

20�2 MUSCLE MILK PTC HIGH SCHOOL CHALLENGE RELAY HANDBOOK�2

All teams are to run their members in rotating legs and in the same sequence of rotation throughout the race. Runner on leg #13 would thus run legs #13 and #25. When determining who will run each leg, (besides distance and leg rating), Captains should consider the following variables:

· The time of day runners will encounter each leg· The leg's exposure to sun and/or wind· Variable weather· Runner ability· Runner familiarity with the area· Whether there is any van support on the leg· Runner willingness to run on a gravel (and potentially dusty) road

The combination of the first three of these is perhaps the most crucial. Some legs are notorious for brutal sun exposure on runners during the day. Several examples are Legs 16, 17, and 35, where running can be in direct sun with little shade.

Runner SubstitutionNo participant may drop out of the race solely for the purpose of the team substituting a faster runner in their place. If a runner is forced out due to injury or illness, they MAY NOT be reinstated into the team lineup. The team must finish the event with the remaining runners moving forward in the same sequence. No alternates may be added once the team has started. (60 min. penalty if involved in improper substitution).

Substitution ProcessSubstitution Process for Teams (other than Boys & Girls Mixed Open):If a runner drops out due to injury/illness during a leg and isn't able to run to the next exchange, the next runner in rotation may take the wrist wrap and continue to the end of that leg. The next leg must be run by the next runner in rotation. No more than one substitution is permitted in a single leg.

Substitution Process for Mixed Divisions:If a runner on the 'Boys & Girls Open' Division team becomes injured or ill and drops out during the leg, the paragraph above applies with the addition that the replacement runner must be of the same gender. If a minimum of seventeen (17) legs are not completed by girls, the team will automatically be reclassified into the boy's division.EXAMPLE (presume injury to male #1 0n leg #13):

TEAM BUILDING cont.

RUNNER OFF COURSE: All teams are to monitor and guide their teammates through the course. If a wrong turn is made, the runner must return to the course on foot to the point on the course where the error occurred and resume the race. Do not mark turns on the roads! Teams are responsible for educating teammates on the course route/directions!

In emergency, call 911 and locate Exchange Leader or Radio Operator at nearest Exchange. Medical care and first aid safety is the responsibility of each team and participant. Each team needs to be prepared to care for the com-mon medical needs of their runner, and have a first aid kit prepared. **You and your teammates MUST write important emergency contact and medical info on the back of your race bibs!

Communications: There will be a Radio Communications Operator at most exchange points along the race course. The radio person’s primary responsibility is communication for emergencies, but they also help with logistical issues. They will be positioned near the exchange zone. If you see anyone hurt, please get their race number, exact location, and nature of the emergency, if possible, and let the radio operator know at the next Exchange Point. They are capable of calling in full emergency medical, police, and fire response.

Giving Aid and Support along the Course: Absolutely no team members or spectators are allowed to cross busy highways or streets with the purpose of giving aid or support to participants running along that side of the road! Team vehicles MUST safely cross over to the other side of the road where the runner is, park, and unload support people.

Running at night: Maintain visual contact with your van within reason along the course. DO NOT follow behind runners! Vans can pull off in a safe area (off of the road)! Do not obstruct traffic! Runners are also permitted to carry a whistle and/or self-defense spray if desired.

Participants must wear a reflective vest, front and back LED flashers, and carry a flashlight or wear a headlamp from 6:00 PM through 7:00 AM while running. THIS IS STRICTLY ENFORCED.

Runners must understand there WILL NOT BE ANY police promised to protect them from vehicle traffic along the course. Great care must be exercised at all times by runners and team vehicles. Runners must face traffic (except Legs 14-16, where they run on the right side of the road) and obey all traffic laws. A motorcycle patrol group will be on the course (legs 13-35) assisting in safety monitoring. At several exchanges, the race has hired professional traffic flaggers. Please obey their signals. Volunteers do not have the authority to do flagging.

Use of headphones or audio amplification while participating is banned, however, music de-vices with speakers below the head are allowed. Headphones severely impede the ability to hear surroundings and are a major safety hazard. Your team will be disqualified if a teammate does not adhere to this policy.

Hydration & First Aid: There will not be First Aid Stations on the course. There are some long sections of the course in the latter stages where no available water sources exist. BE PREPARED. By midday the temperatures may be very hot! The most important step you can take during the race to ensure a safe, fast performance is to continually hydrate. CARRY LARGE WATER CONTAINERS in your vans to refill bottles. As the average team is out on the course for 18 hours, remember to drink plenty of fluids! The least amount of water that most healthy adults should consume (to maintain hydration) everyday is 8 to 10 cups (8 oz). For someone running, 12 to 16 cups a day is recommended. Many injuries are directly related to soft tissue trauma and are effectively treated with ice. Real ice works much better, and is less expensive than chemical ice packs. Ice should be carried in a cooler and used with plastic bags and a layer of damp towel over sore, tender, bruised and blistered areas. Any wrapping or taping should only take place after effective ice therapy. Follow guidelines for R.I.C.E. (Rest Ice Compression Elevation).

Assertive volunteers who are willing to work needed! Volunteers are asked to commit approx. 4-5 hours of assistance during the event. All jobs will be on the COURSE, START or FIN-ISH areas. Exchange Leaders commit 11-12 hours of assistance and are responsible for the safe coordination of a specific exchange. Volunteers must bring a flashlight and two LED flashers to wear if shift is during night.

Volunteer Registration: On/after May 1, 2012 Team Captains can log onto the Team Roster(www.hoodtocoast.com/roster.php) to register volunteers. Each volunteer must have a unique email address. Your volunteer will receive an invite email and will be asked to reply by signing a waiver and choose a Volunteer Job from the available jobs list. If your volunteers want to all be together, they must coordinate their job selections as the jobs are computer automated. Once a position is filled, the job listing will disappear. Volunteers assignments are FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. It is to your advantage to register team volunteers as early as possible. All volunteers must be registered online by July 16, 2012 or the team will be disqualified. Volunteer assignments will be displayed on the Online Roster. If you need assistance or have questions, please contact [email protected] or (503) 292-4626. Exchange Leaders must contact the Volunteer Director: [email protected] for assignments.

Volunteer Training: A mandatory Volunteer Meeting will be held for training and logistical coordination. Each volunteer must know their team number to check in. All three team volunteers MUST attend one of the two meetings (not necessarily together). If the volunteer absolutley cannot attend, send someone in their place and have them relay all training info, documents, and shirt to the volunteer. If a substitution is being made, have the new vol-unteer come to the meeting in place of the replaced person. They have a choice of two (2) possible training dates:

Saturday, August 11, anytime from 9:00 am-1:00 pm (Exchange Leaders Meeting at 1:00 pm) Wednesday, August 13, anytime from 6:30 pm-8:30 pm (Exchange Leaders Meeting at 5:30 pm)

Location: Nike World HQ Tiger Woods Bldg, One Bowerman Drive, Beaverton, OR 97005Opportunities to answer questions, discuss car-pooling, driving directions, and meet job supervisors will be available at Vol-unteer Training. At the end of training, volunteers will receive the official volunteer shirt. If ALL THREE of your volunteers do not attend one of these meetings, YOUR TEAM WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND NOT PERMITTED TO START IN THE RACE.

ATTENDANCE: All teams are responsible for their volunteers peforming their assigned duties, at the correct time. If a volunteer cannot report to their job, the team is responsible for finding a replacement and making sure they ful-fill the job assignment. Failure of a volunteer to report to their preassigned duty will result in team disqualification. All volunteers must WEAR THE OFFICIAL VOLUNTEER T-SHIRT when they perform their job in the race, as this identifies the volunteer as a "Race Official." However, if they cannot wear it for any reason, volunteers will still be accepted to perform their job. When the volunteer checks in, they must sign in with their Team number in the Exchange Book, in order for the team to get credit. Between 6pm-7am, the volunteer will be given a safety vest at Check-In that must be worn during the shift. Volunteers are required to bring a flashlight for a night shift. Following completion of the job, volunteers MUST sign out in the Exchange Book. Failure to properly check in and out will result in team disqualification.

DRIVERS GUIDEDriving the course requires as much preparation and planning as running the race. Below are directions to help you plan and avoid frustration caused by having over 2,000 PTC and HTC vans concentrated in the same area during a 36-hour time period. Drivers who understand the rules and course maps are vital to the safety and efficiency of the High School Challenge.

Drive the Course Before the Race:

Note where all turns are located Identify exchanges (and areas where more time will be required). Know the difficult parking areas and plan accordingly. Be aware of where stops can be made to provide runner support. Know where facilities for food and restrooms are located. It is very important to find additional restroom stops

to minimize the need for lengthy exchange stops. Locate gas stations, the last fuel stop before the beach in Seaside is in St. Helens (Leg 18). Establish places, (other than exchanges), where your team vans can meet. Become aware of areas where vans won't be in contact with their runner and how to deal effectively.

THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO (2) AREAS ON THE COURSE THAT WILL BE RESTRICTED TO ONE VAN PER TEAM There are areas where congestion is caused specifically by narrow roads and the number of vans traveling. Teams will not be able to have two vans together from Exchanges 18-23 and 31-35 or risk being disqualified. Cell phone coverage may not be available in all areas (particularly legs 18-32). Have a back up plan.

Areas Restricted To One Van: There are required van routes for each van, follow the directions in the guide.Between Exchange 18 (Columbia County Fairgrounds in St. Helens) and the intersection of HWY 202 and Old Ranch

Road (Leg 23). Between Olney (Exchange #31) and HWY 101 in Seaside (Leg 36). There are also two shortcut routes listed in adjacent handbook leg maps for Exchanges 6 to 12, and between the PTC

Start and Exchange13.

Giving Aid and Support along the course: Absolutely no team members or spectators are allowed to cross busy highways or streets with the purpose of giving aid or support. Vans must safely pull over to that side of the road and park.

No Parking or stopping permitted within 500 feet before/after an exchange! Also do not drop off teammates in the exchange zone. This will result in a 30 minute team penalty.

Vans must obey the No Parking Between Barricades signs and volunteers parking instructions. The parking areas are designed to reduce congestion and traffic on the course. Even if you think you'll stop for only a minute, find a parking place within the designated parking areas, as this will greatly reduce congestion.

Exchanges are marked with orange paint on paved roads and pink flagging along gravel roads. Slow down on gravel roads (Legs 20 and 21) to help reduce dust and for your safety.
