We recognize that many of you run best with music or audio books but to ensure your safety and the safety of others, please do so in a manner that allows you to be aware of your surroundings. At the very least, we’d prefer that you leave one ear unobstructed by only wearing only one earbud at all times.
If, at any time an NYCRUNS staff member or a volunteer sees that you do not heed the directions of a course marshal, or your awareness is otherwise hindered by your headphones or earbuds, you may be disqualified.
