There will be a comfort station on the course and at the finish.

The t-shirts will be available for pick-up at the Tucumcari State Police Office (3024 South 2nd St) approximately 3 weeks after the event. Once you complete the course, turn in your wristband at the finish line so Agent Tiemann can place the order for you.
