Route information

The 5k course consists of an out-and back loop using both sides of the Benton Channel Fitness Trail that turns around at Benton Road. The 10k consists of a second identical loop along the same route.

There is also a 2 mile out-and-back loop option, which uses both sides of the Benton Channel Fitness Trail, turning around at the water station at Pourroy Road.

The 1 mile run/walk is a short, separately marked, out-and-back.

The kids’ fun run (about 1/3 mile) stays within Fieldview Park and follows the circle sidewalk for a clockwise loop around the perimeter of the baseball field. Troy will direct the kids’ run from inside the gazebo.

How are the courses marked? All routes will be marked with ribbons and gypsum chalk in the days leading up to the race.

Cut-off Times

There is a 2-hour time limit for both the 5k and 10k courses, allowing either to be walked at a moderate pace. Slower strictly-only walkers should not choose the 10k.

10k runners must complete their first loop in one hour (by 10am) to be on track to finish their second loop by the two hour (11am) cutoff. Any 10k runners needing longer than one hour for their first loop will be stopped and given a 5k finisher time after completing the first loop rather than continuing for the second loop.

Water Stations

Water Stations will be available at the Start/Finish line and also at the Trail Intersection with Pourroy Road.

Toilet Facilities

There are toilets available for public use at Fieldview Park Toilets.

FAQs

Can I run the Christmas Rush 5k, 10k & Family Fun Runs with my dog?

Yes, you may run with your dog. However, to avoid congestion, please start at the back.

Can I wear headphones/earphones during the Christmas Rush 5k, 10k & Family Fun Runs?

Yes, however, when you come into aid stations the event organiser recommends that you remove your listening devices so that they can communicate with you effectively. It is also recommend to only use one earpiece or to keep the volume low enough so you can hear the sounds of the environment, such as runners coming from behind or hikers up ahead.

When and where can I find out my results for the Christmas Rush 5k, 10k & Family Fun Runs?

Troy's California Trail Runs aims to have all race results published to their website within 48 hours of the race finish. Often this will occur much sooner.
