Steps runners can take to make participating more pleasant for everyone!
• Thank volunteers
and police officers for their support.
• Show respect to everyone.
• Start the race with others
the same speed as you; do not stand in the front if you are not a fast runner.
• Don't block faster runners,
give them room to pass.
• Carefully move to the right if you are slowing down or walking.
•
Walk in single file or in pairs, do not block the course.
• Move to the edge of the road to tie your shoes
or stretch. Don't just stop!
• Be careful where you spit or drop your water. Make sure you are on the
outside of
the running lane.
• Don't cheat!! Complete the whole course or accept a ride in.
Earn the pride you feel
when you finish by being honest to yourself and others about your efforts.
•
Cheer on other runners, a little encouragement helps a lot when you are tired.
• Pick up your trash. In fact,
help by picking up trash others have left behind. Let's
leave an event site cleaner than when we arrived!
• Remember to treat others the way you expect to be treated!
SRLA is represented by our Leaders, Friends, and
especially our Student Runners. Everything we do sends a message to the community about our program. It's up to us to
have the strength of character to behave responsibly and set the highest of standards.
