DEAR 2015 JOPLIN MEMORIAL HALF RACE PARTICIPANT:
WEEKEND SCHEDULE
Thank you for registering to participate in the 2015 Joplin Memorial Half.
On behalf of the board of directors of Active Lifestyle Events, Inc., I want
to welcome you to Joplin.
FRIDAY, MAY 15 — Runner expo | Kids Run | Walk of Silence
Noon - 8 pm Last chance registration and packet pick-up at MSSU
Noon - 8 pm Vendor expo during packet pick-up at MSSU
We have rebranded our event and hope you like our new logo
incorporating the 161 memorial banners that line the start and finish of
the route. In addition, we have listened to our runners and created a
course that takes in more of the tornado path.
The goal of this run continues to be summarized by our tag line: Run,
Remember, Rebuild. Each of us runs for different reasons. But today,
we share a common bond and we run as one. We run to remember the
lives of the 161 members of our community who cannot be with us, but
whom we will never forget. We run in remembrance of the many acts of
sacrifice and heroism displayed during and after the storm. But we also
run to celebrate the rebuilding of our city’s homes and businesses, as
well as our city’s spirit and pride. Funds from last year’s event supported
Rebuild Joplin and built a new home for a couple who lost everything in
the tornado. This was only possible because of you, the runners.
When you run the race this weekend, you won’t run alone. You’ll be
joined by the first responders from over 430 agencies around the
country and the 126,000–plus registered volunteers from around the
world who descended upon Joplin to help in our city’s greatest time of
need. While many of these volunteers or police and fire personnel won’t
physically be in the race this weekend, some return annually for this
event and to check the progress as we rebuild our city.
We wish you the best of luck this weekend and look forward to seeing
you back in 2016 as we unveil the inaugural Joplin Memorial Marathon,
along with our traditional half marathon, 5k, kids run and Walk of
Silence.
Sincerely,
Audie Dennis
President
Active Lifestyle Events, Inc.

2015 | Joplin Memorial Half
RACE NUMBER
IMPORTANT: Your personal
safety is very important
to us. We encourage you
to take time to write your
emergency information
on the back of your race
number along with any life
threatening conditions, as
well as allergies, for medical
personnel.
Perforated tickets on the
bottom of your race number
have 2 beer tickets (if 21 or
older). Do not remove these
tickets until in the beer tent.
Race numbers must be
worn on the front of your
shirt/shorts. Race officials
and photographers must
be able to see your entire
race number to know you
are officially registered. Do
not cut or fold your number
in any way or place a safety
pin in the perforated tickets
at the bottom. Failure to
comply with this rule could
result in disqualification.
Race numbers are
non-transferable and
may only be worn by the
participant to whom it is
assigned.
ULTRAMAX TIMING
Half Marathon and 5k events are timed
with the UltraMax timing tag. Per USATF
rule 245.1, open men’s and women’s
top 3 awards and master men’s and women’s overall in the half and 5k
will be based on gun time (the order in which the athletes cross the finish
line). Age group awards will be based on timing system time (the actual
time elapsed between an athlete reaching the starting line and finish line)
Other timing mats will be located throughout the course. The timing tag
MUST be attached to your bib. Tags may be disposed of after the race is
completed.
PACE GROUPS
PROVIDED BY
Pacers will be provided for 1:30-3:00 finish times. They will be pre-seeded
in the corrals on race morning. Just look for their pace signs above the

stretch of road will be closed to traffic and we will have
a time of remembrance and silence for people to walk
the corridor of banners. No pets please. Children are
welcome, we just ask that everyone be respectful of this
time. The road will open back up to traffic at 8:00 p.m.

FINISH LINE & RECOVERY AREA
As you finish the

smooth and rapid, please observe the following rules:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Your race number should be visible as you approach the finish line,
and while you are in the finish area. Your time is recorded as you
cross the timing mat.
Please do not cross the finish line a second time if you plan to meet
friends on the course.
Participants who do not complete the entire course should not
cross the finish line.
Do not permit family members and friends to cross the finish line
with you.
Do not cross the finish line if you registered for the half marathon
but decided to run/walk the 5k. You are considered a DNF (did not
finish). As a DNF, you will not be given an official time and you will
not be entitled to a half marathon medal. NO exceptions.
All finishers will receive a custom medal.
After you cross the finish line, you will enter a secure area (fenced
off area for race participants only). In this area, you will receive your
finisher’s medal and get something to eat and drink. Please only take
food for yourself. We encourage you to try not to re-enter this area once
you leave. Outside the finish area, you can retrieve your gear, go to the
Beer Garden (21 and older), or meet up with family and friends.

will be posted online live. You will
also receive an email post-race
with your results. All results will

There will be no formal awards
