What’s Your Bail Plan? Mile 21.0, after the cut-off time of 4:30pm, is the only place we provide transportation back to the finish line. If you decided to drop out anywhere else on the course, you are responsible for your own transportation, unless it is an emergency. Volunteers might be able to assist you in placing a phone call if possible. Have a plan in case you need to drop out early. Please hope for the best, but plan for the worst.
