RACE COURSE

This is great single and double track off-road running experience. The race will start on a street (required for spacing) but will soon lead into the woods. We will begin the race in the Soccer Fields parking lot and run the gravel trail down towards the lake and next to the dam and then into the woods (entering the woods from this trail we will go left and onto the single track sections). 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). The course is beautiful and offers something for every runner truly wishing to ´ditch the city´.
