Historically, we have been on schedule to the minute, so DON’T BE LATE ! It’s strongly suggested that only one team support vehicle come to the Start Area. This will greatly reduce the expected traffic congestion. Van 2 is encouraged to rendevous with Van 1 at Exchange 18. “Out-of-Town” teams receive their packets, race numbers, wrist wraps, vehicle signs, and T-shirts at the Start. Arrive 45 minutes prior to your Start Time to collect these materials and officially check in. CHECK-IN PROCEDURES:

The combination of the first three of these is perhaps the most crucial. Some legs are notorious for brutal sun exposure during the day. Legs 13, 16, and 17 where late afternoon walking can be in direct sun, as well as Leg 35, which have little shade and nearly no van support for the majority of the leg. Walkers who push these legs too hard will severely pay for it in their second and legs, ending up stiff, sore and sometimes injured.

General important information regarding course safety and flow.

Exchanges are marked in yellow paint on paved roads, and pink flagging along gravel roads (yes, this course does have gravel stretches (dust); so bring bandanas/painter’s masks, or just grin and bear it)! Waiting Walkers who will walk the next leg MUST line up single file (after warming up) along the exchange zone shoulder of the road behind the EXCHANGE POINT. Faster team walkers are to be towards the front of this “chute.” Step out of the

CHUTE into the EXCHANGE ZONE as your walker approaches. Walkers finishing must exit the exchange zone promptly and follow volunteer instructions. All Spectators MUST remain on the RIGHT SIDE of the road. Walkers are to walk along the left side of the road except as indicated in the Team Handbook (legs #14 through #16). The race course and finish line will officially close Saturday evening at 9:00pm. Any teams still on the course at that time are requested to either discontinue the race, or finish by walking more than one of their walkers at the same time (only if instructed by Race Officials and given a ‘LeapFrog’ to turn in at the Finish). If your team has been honest in supplying race pace times, everyone should finish no later than 9:00 PM. This means some exchanges (33, 34 and 35) may close before 9:00 pm due to scheduling.

Hood To Coast’s second year in Seaside, runners had to run the equivalent of 12 blocks on the sand to the turnaround area finish line One year in the mid 1990’s, Hood To Coast allowed one world class MTV in-line skate team to participate.

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 Radio Communication Operators are at most exchange zones along the race course. Ham operator’s primary responsibility is communication for emergencies, but they also help with logistical issues. If you see anyone hurt, please get their race number, exact location, and nature of the emergency, if possible, and let the radio operators know at the next Exchange. They are capable of calling in full emergency medical, police, and fire response. (Radio communications volunteers do not fulfill the normal team volunteer requirement). Radio volunteers register via: https://ham.hoodtocoast.com/

Walking At Night Maintain contact with your van within reason along the course. DO NOT follow behind walkers! Vans can pull in a safe area (off of the road)! Don’t obstruct traffic! 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 (through 9:00 AM for reflective vest only) while walking. THIS IS STRICTLY ENFORCED. Teammates/support personnel are highly encouraged to wear a reflective vest and LED flasher when not inside the race vehicle, while on the course or at an exchange Reflectivity be present on the front and back of the participant while running/walking in the event. Reflective striping on a shirt or vest must be at least 1/3” thick. Reflectivity on shorts, pants, or hat does not count towards meeting the minimum requirement. A reflective vest or Y reflective harness are acceptable, whereas a reflective belt, reflective cloth, and/or reflective sleeves will not be accepted. Flashlight headlamp: http://www.ledlenserusa.com/headlamps We do not specify what kind of flashing light, as long as it is LED. Two LED flashers will be provided again this year in each Team Captain bag at Packet Pick-up. Walkers must understand there WON’T be any police promised to protect them from vehicle traffic along the course. Great care must be exercised at all times by walkers and team vehicles. Walkers must face traffic (except Legs 14-16, where they walk on the right side of the road) and obey all traffic laws. A motorcycle patrol group will be on the course (legs 13-35) for safety monitoring. At several exchanges, HTC hires professional traffic flaggers. Obey their signals.

Hydration & First Aid There are not 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. Midday temperatures may be hot! It’s important to continually hydrate. CARRY LARGE WATER CONTAINERS in your vans to refill bottles. The average team is on the course for 29 hours, so drink plenty of fluids! A person walking should consume 12+ cups a day. Many injuries are related to soft tissue trauma and are effectively treated with ice. Real ice works better than chemical ice packs. Ice should be used with plastic bags and a 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).

driver guide

Driving the course requires as much planning as walking the race. Follow these directions to help you plan and handle over 2,000 vans concentrated in the same area during a 36-hour time period.

Drive 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 walker support. Know where food and restrooms are located. It’s very important. Don’t violate the law by going on private property. Locate gas stations, last fuel stop before 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 walker and how to deal effectively. Cell phone coverage may not be available in all areas (particularly legs 18-32).

Areas Restricted To One Van

There are at least two areas on the course that will be restricted to one van per team due to narrow roads with limited space for high concentrations of vans. Between Exch 18 (Columbia Co. Fairgrounds/St. Helens and Intersection of HWY 202 and Old Ranch Road (Leg 23). Map shown in handbook (page 41). Between Olney (Exchange 31) and HWY 101 in Seaside (Leg 36). Map shown in handbook (page 54).

Free Towing / Lock-Out Assistance As a service to participants, we’ve contracted with Allbright Towing for FREE towing/ lock out services (Portland - Seaside), -they’re on call for the race! (503) 648-2662 or cell: (971) 645-6182. If you are out of cell service, contact your nearest exchange leader who will radio an Allbright Towing truck.

Rule Reminders No team members are allowed to cross highways or streets to give aid. Vans must pull over to that side of road and park. No Parking/stopping within 500 feet of an exchange! Don’t drop off teammates near the exchange zone. 30 minute penalty! Vans must obey the No Parking Between Barricades signs and volunteers parking instructions. Exchanges are marked with yellow paint on paved roads and pink flagging along gravel roads.

VAN 1 DRIVING DIRECTIONS:

• Upon entering Astoria, turn left onto the long bridge over the bay following the signs saying to "Warrenton and Seaside" until reaching Hwy 101. • Drive south along Hwy 101 approx. 25 miles to Seaside. • The Finish is on the beach at the end of Broadway St. (commonly called "the turnaround/prom") in Seaside. (See Seaside Shuttle Map, page 62 for parking options). Park in shuttle area or other, and meet your last walker one block north of the turnaround on the beach near where Oceanway Ave dead-ends at the beach. This route takes 45-50 minutes to Seaside and is substantially faster than following the race course.

COMMITMENT TO PORTLAND TO COAST TRAFFIC SAFETY You and your team have the unique opportunity of participating in ‘The Mother of All Relays’ in part because of the local authorities and volunteers who assist in creating a safe relay environment. To keep the roads safe for all 17,400 participants, as well as non-relay vehicles, we annually partner with law enforcement to create a ‘Safety Agreement’ for all teams to abide by. It is mandatory that EVERY PTC TEAM SIGN ONE (1) COPY OF THIS SAFETY AGREEMENT. This agreement must be turned in at the Start Check-In Area. FAILURE TO TURN IN THE SIGNED SAFETY AGREEMENT WILL RESULT IN A TEAM NOT ALLOWED TO START AT THEIR ASSIGNED TIME. Teams and drivers are responsible for their own safety, as well as the safety of others traveling along the relay route. Motorists and relay participants rightfully deserve and appreciate safe roads. Thanks for driving safely!

Remember to fill out (in entirety) the medical info on the back of your race bib! Cut here and turn in lower half to law enforcement representative at Start Check-In Area
