Each loop is 1 mile for the 12 hour race and 1.036 miles for the 5k with a minor course adjustment. The 5k is three loops. The distances are measured using a measuring wheel covering the shortest possible route around the course. The loop is 70% dirt and grass and 30% asphalt and concrete. There is approximately 25 feet of elevation gain each loop. The course is on private property and cannot be accessed before the race without permission. During the 5k there will be volunteers throughout the course in order to provide a safe environment for young runners. The 12 hour race will have limited course monitors.
12 hour runners will need to have either a headlamp or flashlight (& extra batteries) to use on the back portion of the loop where there are no lights. We will have water, Gatorade and bananas for the 5k. The 12 hour participants will also have some solid food to choose from. We hope you have a great time training for and participating in this race!
