	Attention all cash award winners!
	All cash awards winners MUST HAVE a valid taxpayer identification number or social security number. Cash awards will be mailed to be first five overall male and female finishers (based on official time) after CIGNA HealthCare has received a valid taxpayer identification number or social security number. Required documentation MUST be provided by December 1, 2009. Checks will not be processed beyond the race calendar year.

	We anticipate more than 5,000 participants in this year’s Road Race. We are pleased that the race has become such a popular family event and want to keep it safe and fun for all family members.

	Therefore, no bikes, roller blades, skateboards or pets will be allowed on the course. In addition, because the CIGNA/Elliot Corporate 5K Road Race is a USATF sanctioned event and therefore must abide by USATF sanction rules, strollers are not permitted on the course. USATF strictly prohibits the use of strollers as they present potentially dangerous situations not only for the child in the stroller, but for those participating in the event. Anyone with a stroller will be asked to relinquish their chip at the Start Line if they are in a running wave and/or will be disqualified at the Finish. If you have concerns about this rule, please ask a Race Volunteer to put you in contact with a Race Committee member.
