Pacemakers

Our cruise control systems help you keep time and speed for your goal. Each pacemaker will have a flag that you can easily follow around the race. The flag is marked with an end time. Marking 4:00 means that the pacer will complete the marathon in 4 hours. This year we will also have pace setters for the half marathon.

Here you can find out who our speed cameras are.
