Course and logistics
Courses use paved urban run/bike trails that are flat and largely shaded. Distances are run as lap courses. The marathon/half/50K lap is approximately 2.2 miles (marathon = 12 laps, half = 6 laps, 50K = 14 laps plus two short laps). The 5K/10K lap is approximately 1.55 miles (5K = two laps, 10K = four laps). Each lap includes two street crossings; runners are responsible for crossing safely. Turnarounds are marked and rubber bands will be available to track laps.
The only aid station is at the start/finish and will provide chilled water, Gatorade, soda, and snacks; additional salty items are provided in hot weather. The race is cupless; runners must bring their own hydration device. Parking is at Cady Way Park with an overflow lot and a school nearby. A small pavilion at the start/finish can hold drop bags. Volunteers may earn race entries for full volunteer days. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
