Route information
Terrain: Trails and pavement
Elevation: Fast downhill course
Elevation Gain: 469ft.
The first 5 miles of our course will start on Fire Rd. and is on a rough dirt trail. There is no steep uphill or downhill here, but it’s not exactly flat either.
The last 8.1 miles are identical to our inaugural course. Miles 6-10 are a fast downhill descent on a beautifully paved road. Then, you will turn right on N Shore Road after crossing RD-274 (Malum Ridge Rd). You will run on N Shore Road around Bass Lake until about mile 12.25. From there, take a left on S Shore Rd and finish on the dirt trail again.
The race will finish at Recreation Point. All runners will have 4 hours to finish the race. That is an 18-minute-mile pace meaning there is plenty of time for walkers.
