SCORING ⁄ TIMING
We will be using "Chip Timing" for this race. Two person relay teams will need to wear a provided timing chip which will function as their "baton" to hand off to their teammate.
PACKET PICKUP
Packet pickup will be the morning of the race starting at 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.. Race starts at 9:00 a.m. SHARP!
RACE COURSE
This is great single and double track off-road running experience. The race will start on the street down by the registration area - entrance "A" (required for spacing) but will soon lead into the woods. The race will be a "run ⁄ bike ⁄run". The terrain is made up of a little bit of everything, rolling hills, climbs, single track, double track, roots with some technical sections. The course is beautiful and offers something for every runner truly wishing to ´ditch the city´. Nestled in the woods of suburban Atlanta lies a true gem. Once you descend into the woods, you will forget your in the city. As a matter of fact, you will come to know why we follow the creed ´Ditch the City´. Running course will be a 3.5 mile loop (over the wooden bridge ⁄ next to the lake ⁄ on the gas pipeline ⁄ back over the wooden bridge). The mountain bike course will be composed mainly of the "outer loop" (approx. 10 miles) of the Fort Yargo Trail system (clockwise). We will NOT use the "horseshoe drop" or the "monster mile" for the mountain bike portion of the course.
