Route information
All courses include a mix of fire roads, single track and very small sections of paved trail. The half marathon and 10K include a climb up to the top of Sanborn Park. Smart runners will walk the hills and save their energy for the flats and downhills!
The half marathon has a 4.5 hour time limit to finish the course.
All half marathon runners must reach the third aid station (mile 6.55 by 10:45 am) and the fourth aid station (mile 9.94) by noon. Runners unable to reach the aid stations before those cut-offs will be instructed to exit the course and accept a ride back to the start/finish area.
All participants will receive a copy of their appropriate course map on race day.
Each course will be marked with colored ribbons, signs and flour, so that runners know they are on the correct course. Volunteers will also be on the course at key locations to help direct runners.

Brazen Racing
We don’t care if you are fast or slow, big or small, young or old. We aren’t the beautiful people you might see in a shoe commercial on TV. We never will be. We’re just everyday people who have discovered the happiness that running can bring. If you have the guts to get off the couch, get outside and run or walk at least 5K (3.1 miles), we are ready for you.
FAQs
I am a very slow runner. Am I going to be out of place?
You won't be out of place at all. Our races are planned for participants of all abilities -- including walkers/hikers.
Can I wear headphones?
Yes, but we ask that you keep the volume down at a safe level so that you can hear other runners or instructions from event personnel. We also ask that you remove them, or, at the very least, remove one ear bud when you are coming to aid stations, in a large crowd or on more technical or difficult sections of the course. The important thing is paying attention to everyone's safety and maintaining basic race etiquette with other runners.
Will there be somewhere to leave my warm up clothes?
Yes, there will be a sweat-check area and these will be checked in and watched over by a volunteer. Bags for storing your sweats will be available if you do not bring your own. Please do not leave valuables in your sweat bags -- we cannot be responsible for these items.
