* An "Official Bandit Runner" is a nickname for a runner who registered on race day.  Official Bandit Runners are considered official runners in this event, and the name is used as an attempt to shame runners for registering late.  No unofficial status is applied to these runners, and "Unofficial Bandit Runners" have the same status in the race as any other registered runner.

** To be applicable for a Night Time Course Record, a runner must start the race after the sun has completely set and finish the race before the sun comes up.  An artificial light may be used.

*** Although he had a Marathon Split, Cliff Cartwright is omitted because of his status as an Ultramarathon Finisher.

Additional Notes:  Although start times were not listed, early starts were permitted and within the rules of the organization.  Finishing times reflect the amount of time runners spent on the course.  Also, bib numbers were assigned, but they are not listed in the results.  Each runner has a bib number. The same contact information can be used in any effort to obtain a finisher's certificate or finisher's medal for a runner.
