The Cocodona250 is the most diverse point-to-point 200+ mile footrace in America. The course is challenging, rugged, steeped in history, and stunningly beautiful. Some steps will be effortless, others will feel impossible, but each will carry you on a life altering adventure. So…welcome to the inaugural running of the Cocodona250! Please read through this Runner Guide prior to race week to make the best of your race, and do not hesitate to contact us with any questions. We HIGHLY recommend that Pacers and Crew also read this Runner Guide. Like being social and want to be kept up to date with all the deets? Follow the Cocodona Instagram, join our Cocodona Runners Facebook group, and follow our Cocodona Facebook page. 2. Aravaipa Running The Cocodona250 is organized by Aravaipa Running. Based in Phoenix Arizona, Aravaipa is a runner-driven organization that promotes trail and ultra running events across Arizona, Utah, and Colorado. The production of the Cocodona250 would not be possible without the help of the communities the race passes through, the many staff and volunteers who help in varying capacities from medical to aid stations to course marking and much much more. Learn more by visiting aravaiparunning.com. 3. History The Cocodona 250 links up some of the most diverse terrain that Arizona has to offer and it also runs through the most important historical towns in the state. Event founder Jamil Coury wanted to find a way to run from the outskirts of Phoenix to downtown Flagstaff - from the Sonoran Desert to the ponderosa pine forest of his home state while also incorporating some of Arizona's oldest towns. The goal is to inspire not only those participating in this grand adventure on foot, but also the people who breathe life into these amazing communities the race traverses through. The name Cocodona is derived from "Coconino", the county where the race ends and "Sedona" one of the most iconic towns surrounded by incredible red rocks we'll traverse through. 2021 will serve as the inaugural year for an event that we anticipate will soon garner worldwide attention and land on the bucket list of every serious ultra runner around the globe. 3 4.

Covid Protocols We are taking Covid precautions very seriously. If you are not prepared to follow our guidelines, please don’t come to the event. The safety of our runners, volunteers, staff, and the communities we run through is more important than any race…even one as epic as Cocodona. - Covid Symptoms = STAY HOME – All participants agree not to attend the event if they test positive for COVID-19, have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, exhibit symptoms or feel sick within 14 days prior to the event. - Covid Test – We are asking (not requiring) all runners and volunteers get tested for COVID-19 and receive the results prior to traveling for the race. All staff members will be required to get tested for COVID-19 and receive the results prior to traveling for the race. - Covid vaccine – If possible, we recommend for runners and volunteers to receive the Covid vaccine prior to traveling for the race. - Wellness Check – Our medical team will conduct a medical screening of all runners as the first step in the check-in process. The medical screening will include a check for elevated temperatures and a COVID-19 screening questionnaire. - Face Masks – Face coverings or masks are required for all participants, staff, volunteers, and spectators at all congregation points of the race (start, aid stations, and finish). Runners and pacers may take down 5 masks when on the course, as long as they can maintain proper social distance from others (6 feet from other runners). For the purposes of the race, runner/pacers/crew are considered a “family unit” and are not required to wear masks if they are away from other runners and race congregation points. - Hygiene – Hand sanitizer will be available throughout event at the start, all aid stations, medical, portable toilets, and the finish. Tents and portable restrooms will be spaced out to offer proper social distancing while waiting in line. We will have disinfectant spray bottles outside of portable toilets for you to give it a good spray down and then sanitize your hands. Aid stations have been redesigned to be touchless as much as possible. Our aid stations will offer repackaged food when possible & gloved/masked volunteers for any other service required. - Social Distancing – All participants must practice social distancing (maintaining a 6-foot distance from others). In areas where lines form (check-in, restrooms, wellness checks, and start corral) we will mark out lines or places to stand that are 6 feet apart. - Reduced Touchpoints – As much as possible we will reduce the touch points for the event, from check-in to finish line. There will be no communal “grab on your own” food at aid stations, most snacks will be pre- packaged or re-packaged and single serve. For the things that are not, participants will ask our aid station volunteers who will serve them on a plate or in a bag. Aid Station volunteers will pour drinks directly into runner’s cup, flask, or bladder. - Wave Starts – We ask that runners limit the number of people accompanying them to the Start Line to the bare minimum. We realize this is a time to be celebrated but we are extremely happy just to be able to race in the time of Covid. In order to provide safe Covid separation between runners, we will be starting the race in waves of 30 runners (socially distanced) every 10 minutes, from 5am-6am on Monday, May 3rd.

  • Redesign of a Tactical Backpack
    Redesign of a Tactical Backpack Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Interactive Qualifying Project. By: Ethan Connors Robert Flaherty Richard Gala Jr. James MacDonald Jose Sosa Garret Yablonski C-Term, 2010 Approved: Professor M. S. Fofana ABSTRACT Our project endeavored to improve upon the United States Marine Corps Pack System. At the onset of our work, our project group had aspired to design a completely new dry liner for the United States Marine Corps Improved Load Bearing Equipment (ILBE) pack design. USMC contracting departments, however, are currently discussing the possibility of soon phasing out the ILBE completely. Therefore, our focus was redirected towards improving a supplementary tactical system that would continue to be used regardless of the primary pack design later adopted. The compression dry sack currently used by active service marines (in particular Force Reconnaissance Marine dive units) is called the Marine Compression Stuff (MACS) Sack. This design, manufactured by Cascade Designs, Inc, has demonstrated one critical flaw when put to use during USMC recon diver operations: it doesn’t fully deflate. Our project has analyzed the control elements of this tactical pack and developed various means to improve its basic design with respect to this established problem. Our group reached a consensus that a renovation to the existing MACS Sack should come in the form of a more efficient compression method and the possible incorporation of a vacuum pump. With the addition of a “rip-cord” system, the time necessary to initially compress the waterproof pack around its contents would be significantly reduced.

  • This Is an Expedition Before and After Trip Logistics the Trip Camping Equipment Provided Packing List Frequently Asked Questions Trip Map
    SPEX Sedona Philosophy Experience The Grand Questions Colorado River trip June 2-June 10, 2017 Contents: THIS IS AN EXPEDITION BEFORE AND AFTER TRIP LOGISTICS THE TRIP CAMPING EQUIPMENT PROVIDED PACKING LIST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS TRIP MAP THIS IS AN EXPEDITION This is an extraordinary vacation and may be unlike any other experience you and your guests have ever had. Please review this information as it is important to us that you and everyone on your reservation are prepared for the trip. Keep in mind the anticipated rigors of the trip; good health and physical condition are musts for this rafting adventure. A Grand Canyon rafting trip often presents challenges to those already compromised with poor health or physical fitness. Please strongly consider and discuss any challenges with your doctor. Beyond the active itinerary, camp safety is essential. Camp life may entail moving around and over rocks, climbing steep, sandy beaches, and cautiously crossing slick or sticky mud. In addition, living outdoors for several days in a desert environment can quickly impact one’s health and stamina. Weather conditions vary from extreme heat to extreme cold, heavy rain, strong winds, and blowing sand. We encourage you to use the following questions to help think about the ideal level of endurance and stamina needed. Can you: • Ascend and descend two flights of stairs carrying a 20 pound bag without using a handrail? • Get up on top of a kitchen counter, stand up, and return to the floor without using a stool? • Climb several sets of stairs while urgently needing the bathroom? • Rise from a seated position from the ground to standing up to 30 times a day? • Balance a plate of food on your lap while eating? • Suspend your weight from a pull up bar for 15 seconds? This trip is doable for most adventurers and for many newcomers as well.
