Do you allow walkers?

Great Race of Agoura Hills -- Agoura Hills -- FAQ : Frequent...
Yes, you can walk any of our races. However, if your pace is slow you may find that the police will start to open streets to traffic and you will need to move to the sidewalk and observe the rules of the road. Our finish line stays active until 10:30 a.m. That's a 3:30:00 half marathon or a 1:55:00 10K. Although the finish line remains open, it does not guarantee there will be full course support. If you are entered in the half marathon, the course time limit is 3:30 hours.

Can I bar code the runners' numbers as they cross the finish line?

RunScore/Windows: FAQs
Yes, but this proves to be too difficult for the return you get from scanning on the line. The runners cross very rapidly and having someone there to slow them down to scan the barcode usually makes things unmanagable. There is no way to get them all and even the ones you get will not reflect the correct time due to the delay between when the runner crosses the finish line and the time you scan the bib. You should also not try to scan the bibs at the exit of the finish chute.

Do you train walkers?

Friends In Training (FIT) FAQ Database - A Bravenet.com Faq
Yes, we have a pace group specifically for walkers! We encourage our walkers to maintain a 16-minute per mile pace or faster, since most marathons have time restrictions during which you must complete the course. Walker friendly marathons are typically defined as marathons that have the course open for at least six and a half hours or longer. Throughout our season, we also offer speed training, which is a valuable method to increase your speed and decrease your minute per mile pace.
