RACE COURSE

This is great single and double track off-road running experience. Fisher Farm Park is going to set up to be a great venue for the series finale! If you haven´t had an opportunity to run or bike out there – get out and do it! This is a hidden gem! You are gonna love these trails! The race will start in the open field (required for spacing). We will run for .50 in the open field then into the woods. The race will be run in a clockwise direction (going to the left at the trailhead). We will follow the Green Sections of the trail (beginner mountain bike route) and the Blue Sections of the trail (intermediate mountain bike route). We will run the first Black Diamond Section of the trail and miss the rest of them... The terrain is made up of a little bit of everything, rolling hills, single track, double track, roots, along with some technical sections (tight and twisty trail). We will have water at mile marker 2.8, 5.2 and 8.0. The 5.2 milers will do 1 loop and the 10 milers will do 2 loops. The course is beautiful and offers something for every runner truly wishing to ´ditch the city´.
