Welcome to the 16th annual Muscle Milk PTC High School Challenge Relay! A sincere thank you to Muscle Milk, who is the enthusiastic second year title sponsor of this esteemed event! Also welcome renowned Providence Cancer Center, as our new exclusive charity partner! We’re excited to host your team and hope running in the largest and greatest relay will provide you with lasting motivation to take on new challenges in the future. Please take time to read the entire handbook! • The NEW ALL-ONLINE MANDATORY VOLUNTEER TRAINING is a big change you will see in regards to the pre-event experience. Training will no longer take place in person, but rather through an online comprehensive online quiz, where team volunteers take the mandatory training in the comfort of their home and on their own time. See page 15 and visit http://volunteer.hoodtocoast.com for info!!
• Be Visible! From 6:00pm through 7:00am all runners must wear one small front and back LED flasher, a reflec-tive vest, and flashlight or headlight. Reflective vests should be worn through 9:00am only.
• Hear Your Surroundings! The use of headphones or audio amplification devices (worn on the head) while running in the race is not allowed and enforced as grounds for team disqualification (see page 13).
• The Hood To Coast Movieis a must watch! This touching, motivating human drama is available on DVD or Blu-Ray to inspire you and your teammates before the race! www.ptchighschoolchallenge.com/store
• Reduce-Reuse-Recycle! Utilize and bring re-usable water containers! If you must use plastic bottles, our event will have co-mingled trash/recycling bins at the Start, all exchanges, and Finish beach party! Plastics will be sorted out post-race by 'Waste Free Oregon'! Additionally, all handbooks are printed on recycled paper.
• Fundraise to fight cancer! Our sincerest thanks to 2012 participants, sponsors, and staff who fundraised a staggering $634,000 to support cancer research! HTC/PTC fundraising has increased ten fold in seven years! Go to www.htccharity.com to get you & your team started with fundraising online. Let's all do our part to find a cure.
• Cut N' Run: simple 'leg' directions on page 18 to cut out and carry in your hand or pocket while you run!
• Finish on the Beach! Reward yourself with the huge, newly redesigned finish party on the beach in Seaside! Team pictures, food garden, vendor samples and live music/dancing will keep those endorphins going long after you're done running!
We hope your experience in the 16th Muscle Milk PTC High School Challenge Relay is as enjoyable as it is for us to put on this special event! Thanks to the dedicated PTC Staff, Race Committee, sponsors and 3,600 volunteers who work to make this incredible experience possible! Enjoy the race, camaraderie and laughs along the way. We’ll see you at the beach!

Recruit Teammates! Connect with runners looking for a team, or teams looking for runners by visiting www.htcrelayforum.com ! Chat with fellow participants, ask questions and post to recruit other high school runners! Discussions range from teams looking for additonal runners to tips/advice and logistics.
Categories
28. BOYS OPEN. . . . . . . . . Maximum age of all runners is 18.29. GIRLS OPEN. . . . . . . . . Maximum age of all runners is 18.30. BOYS / GIRLS OPEN. . . Mix of boys and girls, with at least half of team being girls. (Max age of runners is 18)
MIXED CATEGORIES:
• Teams with 12 members are to have a min. of six girls. • Teams with 10-11 members are to have a minimum of five girls. • Teams with 8-9 members are to have a minimum of four girls. • Teams with less than the required number of girls for the Boys/Girls Open will default to the Boys Open category. • Any team made up of 1-5 boys and the remainder girls, will be classified within the Boys/Girls Open.
(Team Category will update automatically on the 'Team Roster' page as team gender and age composition changes).
2013 MUSCLE MILK PTC HIGH SCHOOL CHALLENGE RELAY HANDBOOK12
All teams are to run their members in rotating legs and in the same sequence of rotation throughout the race. Runner on leg #13 would thus run legs #13 and #25. When determining who will run each leg, (besides distance and leg rating), Captains should consider the following variables:
· The time of day runners will encounter each leg· The leg's exposure to sun and/or wind· Variable weather· Runner ability· Runner familiarity with the area· Whether there is any van support on the leg· Runner willingness to run on a gravel (and potentially dusty) road
The combination of the first three of these is perhaps the most crucial. Some legs are notorious for brutal sun exposure on runners during the day. Several examples are Legs 16, 17, and 35, where running can be in direct sun with little shade.
Runner SubstitutionNo participant may drop out of the race solely for the purpose of the team substituting a faster runner in their place. If a runner is forced out due to injury or illness, they MAY NOT be reinstated into the team lineup. The team must finish the event with the remaining runners moving forward in the same sequence. No alternates may be added once the team has started. (60 min. penalty if involved in improper substitution).
Substitution ProcessSubstitution Process for Teams (other than Boys & Girls Mixed Open):If a runner drops out due to injury/illness during a leg and isn't able to run to the next exchange, the next runner in rotation may take the wrist wrap and continue to the end of that leg. The next leg must be run by the next runner in rotation. No more than one substitution is permitted in a single leg.
Substitution Process for Mixed Divisions:If a runner on the 'Boys & Girls Open' Division team becomes injured or ill and drops out during the leg, the paragraph above applies with the addition that the replacement runner must be of the same gender. If a minimum of seventeen (17) legs are not completed by girls, the team will automatically be reclassified into the boy's division.EXAMPLE (presume injury to male #1 0n leg #13):

152013 MUSCLE MILK PTC HIGH SCHOOL CHALLENGE RELAY HANDBOOK
SAFETYIn emergency, call 911 and locate Exchange Leader or Radio Operator at nearest Exchange. Medical care and first aid safety is the responsibility of each team and participant. Each team needs to be prepared to care for the common medical needs of their runner, and have a first aid kit prepared. **You and your teammates MUST write important emergency contact and medical info on the back of your race bibs!
Communications: There will be a Radio Communications Operator at most exchange points along the race course. The radio person’s primary responsibility is communication for emergencies, but they also help with logistical issues. They will be positioned near the exchange zone. If you see anyone hurt, please get their race number, exact location, and nature of the emergency, if possible, and let the radio operator know at the next Exchange Point. They are capable of calling in full emergency medical, police, and fire response.
Giving Aid and Support along the Course: Absolutely no team members or spectators are allowed to cross busy highways or streets with the purpose of giving aid or support to participants running along that side of the road! Team vehicles MUST safely cross over to the other side of the road where the runner is, park, and unload support people.
Running at night: Maintain contact with your van within reason along the course. DO NOT follow behind runners! Vans can pull in a safe area (off of the road)! Don't obstruct traffic! Runners are permitted to carry a whistle or other precaution if desired.
Participants must wear a reflective vest, front and back LED flashers, and carry a flashlight or wear a headlamp from 6:00 PM through 7:00 AM (through 9:00 AM for reflective vest only) while running. THIS IS STRICTLY ENFORCED.
Teammates/support personnel are highly encouraged to wear a reflective vest and LED flasher when not inside the race vehicle, while on the course or at an exchange (from 6:00PM-9:00AM).
Runners must understand there WON'T be any police promised to protect them from vehicle traffic along the course. Great care must be exercised at all times by runners and team vehicles. Runners must face traffic (except Legs 14-16, where they run on the right side of the road) and obey all traffic laws. A motorcycle patrol group will be on the course (legs 13-35) for safety monitoring. At several exchanges, HTC hires professional traffic flaggers. Obey their signals. Volunteers don't have the authority to flag.
Use of headphones or audio amplification while participating is banned, however, music devices with speakers below the head are allowed. Headphones severely impede the ability to hear sur-roundings and are a major safety hazard. Your team will be disqualified if a teammate does not adhere to this policy.
Hydration & First Aid: There will not be First Aid Stations on the course. There are some long sections of the course in the latter stages where no available water sources exist. BE PREPARED. By midday the temperatures may be very hot! The most important step you can take during the race to ensure a safe, fast performance is to continually hydrate.
CARRY LARGE WATER CONTAINERS in your vans to refill bottles. As the average team is out on the course for 28 hours, remember to drink plenty of fluids! The least amount of water that most healthy adults should consume (to maintain hydration) everyday is 8 to 10 cups (8 oz). For someone running, 12 to 16 cups a day is recommended. Many injuries are directly related to soft tissue trauma and are effectively treated with ice. Real ice works much better, and is less expensive than chemical ice packs. Ice should be carried in a cooler and used with plastic bags and a layer of damp towel over sore, tender, bruised and blistered areas. Any wrapping or taping should only take place after effective ice therapy. Follow guidelines for R.I.C.E. (Rest Ice Compression Elevation).

DRIVERS GUIDEDriving the course requires as much planning as running the race. Below are directions to help you plan and avoid frustration caused by having over 2,000 vans concentrated in the same area during a 36-hour time period.
Drive Course Before the Race:• Note where all turns are located.• Identify exchanges (and areas where more time will be required).• Know the difficult parking areas and plan accordingly.• Be aware of where stops can be made to provide runner support.• Know where facilities for food and restrooms are located. It is very important to find additional restroom stops to minimize the need for lengthy exchange stops.• Locate gas stations, the last fuel stop before the beach in Seaside is in St. Helens (Leg 18).• Establish places, (other than exchanges), where your team vans can meet.• Become aware of areas where vans won't be in contact with their runner and how to deal effectively. THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO (2) AREAS ON THE COURSE THAT WILL BE RESTRICTED TO ONE VAN PER TEAM There are areas where congestion is caused specifically by narrow roads and the number of vans traveling. Teams will not be able to have two vans together from Exchanges 18-23 and 31-35 or risk being disqualified.• Cell phone coverage may not be available in all areas (particularly legs 18-32). Have a back up plan.
Areas Restricted To One Van: • Between Exchange 18 (Columbia County Fairgrounds in St. Helens) and the intersection of HWY 202 and Old Ranch Road (Leg 23). Map shown in handbook (page 28).• Between Olney (Exchange 31) and HWY 101 in Seaside (Leg 36). Map shown in handbook (page 41).• There is also a shortcut route listed in the handbook leg map from the PTC Start to Exch 13.
Rule Reminders:Giving Aid and Support along the course: Absolutely no team members are allowed to cross busy highways or streets with the purpose of giving aid or support. Vans must safely pull over to that side of the road and park.
No Parking or stopping permitted within 500 feet before/after exchange! Do not drop off teammates near the exchange zone. This is a 30 minute team penalty.
Vans must obey the No Parking Between Barricades signs and volunteers parking instructions. The parking areas are designed to reduce congestion and traffic on the course. Even if you think you'll stop for only a minute, find a parking place within the designated parking areas, as this will greatly reduce congestion.
Exchanges are marked with yellow paint on paved roads and pink flagging along gravel roads. Slow down on gravel roads (Legs 20 and 21) to help reduce dust and for your safety.
