Live chip timing and on-site photographers will record laps and moments throughout the event. Laps are counted by the timing service and displayed on a screen at the start/finish; official distance may differ from personal devices. The course direction changes every three hours.
One primary aid station is located at the covered concessions area on the north side of the track. The aid station provides ice, water, Ultraverse Supplements Proxima C, and light food items; ramen and mashed potatoes are available by request. Heat Wave is cup-less, so participants must bring a personal drinking vessel. Designated areas are available for personal supplies; space is limited and provided on a first-come basis.
Pacers are not permitted. Tents and pop-ups are permitted only in designated areas; dogs are allowed in the parking lot or covered entryway but not on the track or infield. Mini-challenges at short distances are included as on-course competitions. All finishers receive a medal; belt buckles are awarded for set milestone distances and top finishers receive additional awards. Runners under 18 must have a parent or guardian present at the event at all times. Medical care is not provided on site; participants are responsible for their own medical needs.
