Course and event details
The course is a 3-mile double out-and-back, which allows a 1.5-mile option. The route starts just outside the Edgar Gruel Building, goes south to White Ave for the first turnaround, and continues north toward the dog park for the second turnaround before returning to finish at the Edgar Gruel Building. The 1.5-mile participants peel off at the first turnaround and can access a light post-race snack table and hot beverage.
Dogs are welcome on leash; dog owners must sign a dog waiver on race day, keep dogs outside the building, and pick up after them. Strollers are permitted; the route is mostly pavement with one section of well packed gravel. Kiddos on bikes are allowed but must wear helmets. The event is untimed and there are no prizes; a clock will be visible for reference. Participants who donate $30 or more receive a laser-engraved to-go mug.
