This decision is at the complete discretion of the Race Director and is made in the best interest of all participants health and safety. We thank you in advance for understanding.

Note: in the previous six years of the Scorching events (35 plus events) we have only canceled two duathlons (due to extreme winds and rain), and modified the running of one triathlon (rain and wind combination) for participant safety.
