Race week is finally here for REVEL Canyon City! Stay tuned as we pass along a few more updates this week. All questions regarding the race can also be answered via our Participant Guide or Race Info page.
Your friends and family can track your progress as you pass timing checkpoints along the course. They can also sign up to receive text alerts each time you cross a timing checkpoint. You can find your link for people to track you at

Give this link to your friends and family. This link is also where they can sign up to receive text alerts (or you can sign up for them).
You will receive a race bag when you pick up your packet at the expo. This bag is for you to take to the starting areas. A sticker that matches your race bib will be put on the outside of your race bag. This is to identify your bag at the finish area after the race, and you will need your bib to prove ownership of your bag when you pick it up. Please carry any belongings to the starting area in this bag, as opposed to any other personal bags, which cannot be identified by your race number. Bags must be placed in the bag trucks at the starting areas at least 15 minutes prior to the race start.
**Any personal belongings dropped at aid stations or anywhere along the course will be donated to charity.**
The races will be chip-timed using timing tags adhered to the back of your bib. Your time will begin when you cross the starting line and stop when you cross the finish line. Overall prize winners (top 3 in each race) will be determined by gun time, not chip time. Please do not tamper with the timing chips, as they cannot be replaced once linked to your bib number.
Because the timing tag is adhered to the back of your race bib, it is important that you do not cover your bib with clothing or other objects that may interfere with the tag reader when you are crossing the start and finish lines. Furthermore, in order to ensure that race volunteers, officials, and photographers can properly identify you, you must wear your bib on the front of your person in an unobstructed position. If the photographers along the course cannot see your bib number, we will have no way to get your photos to you.
Beast Pacing pacers will be running both the full marathon and half marathon to lead everyone to a fast time. The full marathon will include pacers at various Boston-qualifying paces, including:
The half marathon will include pacers at the following paces:

Because REVEL Canyon City is a point-to-point route, we will bus you from the finish line to the start line. Your bib is your ticket to board a bus. Due to road closures and participant safety all runners must take the buses the morning of the race. You may not park or be dropped off at the start lines.
Race parking is available in designated lots of Azusa Pacific University & Citrus College. All designated parking is within walking distance of the finish line. Full and half marathon participants will board buses in two separate locations. Full marathon buses will load from Alosta Avenue & E Foothill Boulevard and will depart from 4:00-5:00 AM. Full Marathon participants should park at Azusa Pacific University using the following address for navigation: 701 E Foothill Boulevard, Azusa, CA 91702.
Half marathon buses will load from N Citrus Avenue & Campus Drive and will depart from 4:30-5:30 AM. Half Marathon participants should park at Citrus College using the following address for navigation: 700 N Citrus Avenue, Azusa, CA 91702. Please arrive on time and make sure you board the correct bus.
The Aid Stations will be equipped with water, Lemon Lime & Fruit Punch electrolytes, Port-o-lets, and basic medical supplies. In addition some aid stations will include Gu Energy Gels (Strawberry Banana-no caffeine & Vanilla Bean-caffeine), candy, fruit, and medical personnel (see aid station map below). **Any personal belongings dropped on the course will be donated to charity.**
Because the canyon will be closed to traffic and spectators, we recommend that your family and friends find other good spots along the course to cheer you on. The best places for spectators are along E 9th Street, Palm Drive and at the finish venue along E Foothill Boulevard. Spectators will be not allowed to park anywhere on the course (including E 9th Street and Palm Drive) and should plan time to walk to their cheering destinations. Refer your fan club to the courses page of the website site to plot out their desired locations.
