Course markers are unbelievably helpful and important in managing a road race event. It is undeniable that people can take a wrong turn during a race because of poor race management in not having proper course markers. Markers are important because:
– Prevent runners from getting lost on the course
– Improve event enjoyment by feeling comfortable on the course knowing where they are at all times of the race
– Allowing competitive runners to record mile splits
– Allows for communication to runners through signage
– Course markers don’t just have to be at each mile. They can help guide runners at any point
Even though it is a small thing, it is important to remember the details that make the participant’s experience better. Remember, one wrong turn can make a runner have one bad day…
