RAGNAR'S COVID-19
AT HOME PRE-RACE CHECK-IN & HEALTH SCREENING
- Race week: Runners will be required to fill out a COVID-19 declaration committing that they don’t have COVID-19 symptoms and have not been exposed within the last 14 days. All runners must complete this form. Runners/teams will not be allowed to start the race without this.
- All of the pre-race and check-in procedure have been modified according to CDC safety guidelines. Your race directors will inform you of race specific details in the weeks leading up to your event. These procedures will promote social distancing and prevent crowding at the start line.
- Upon arrival at check-in runners, staff, and volunteers will be required to wear face coverings.
- Ragnar will continue to promptly and frequently communicate pertinent details before the race.
RAGNAR'S 2021 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS & PROTOCOLS
PREPAREDNESS PLAN
Our number one goal is to mitigate the potential transmission of COVID-19. Due to the ever changing nature surrounding COVID-19, all the protocols listed in this plan are subject to change at any time. We will comply with all state, local, and county regulations and public health notices to establish a safe event for everyone involved.
- The Start, Finish and Exchange Venues are designed to provide everyone ample room to observe social distancing.
- Any lines will be demarcated with physical markings to designate the proper social distancing requirement.
- Start waves of teams will be reduced in size to prevent crowding. Active runners are required to social distance at the start-line as well as continue wearing face masks until they start running.
- Ragnar staff will be positioned throughout the course to help runners and enforce all Ragnar Safety Protocols.
VENUE PROTOCOL
PPE AND HYGIENE
- Active runners will be required to carry a face covering with them at all times. In the event of requiring assistance during their run or encountering areas where social distancing is not possible either from other participants and/or local foot traffic you must put on your covering.
- Participants will be required to bring all their own Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and hand sanitizer or sanitizing wipes. Additional PPE will be provided at all locations.
- Water Stations will be modified to ensure they remain safe and sterile.
- High traffic areas and touch points will be wiped down regularly.
- If any participant, staff member, volunteer, or other required personnel becomes ill with known symptoms of COVID-19 during the race, they will be required to immediately alert a Ragnar Staff member.
- They will then be required to self-quarantine in the designated location and receive further instructions.
QUARANTINE
- Unsure about the future? We get it!
