 +===== Deflaggers =====
 +Deflaggers will leave along with the Sweeper from the start/finish at 12 noon and run the course. One or preferably two deflaggers will be removing flags and pickets (wood stakes with sign on it). 
 +
 +You'll need: gloves, scissors or knife, three large trash bags in addition to your regular trail running kit. The gloves for removing flags that have been tied to thorn bushes. The scissors are to cut away the knotted flags. The idea is to fill a trash bag while carrying the pickets to the next aid station where you can drop them off. It's a gradual process of some running and a lot of walking. Count on arriving back at the finish line in 5 hours or more depending on the slowest runner. Deflaggers and sweeper need to stay behind the last runner.
