Participants are provided meals, snacks, liquids, mobile showers, tents, safety guidelines, 24-hour medical support – all resources needed for a safe and memorable experience.

In addition, a variety of businesses have made in-kind donations or financial contributions to the team, including Nike and New Balance, and numerous other local retailers and restaurants.
