Hello Liz, For the annual running of Grandma's Marathon, in Duluth MN the runners wear RFID tags and the local amateur radio community provides health & wellness communications with amateurs stationed all along the course. We also use motorcycles that can respond up and down the course and drive in front of the lead elite runners, and those motorcycles are operated by hams with dual-band radios capable of APRS so net control knows where they are on the course at any time. The ice and water truck is also equipped with APRS.
I hope this helps.
