Course:
There will be a day course and a night course.
Day Course is a loop course and about 25% road running & the other 75% will be MTB single track / hiking trail. Day course has approximately 292 ft total climbing. The uphill is gradual in between miles 1.5 to 2.5 (approx.) and has downhill / straight’ish areas in between. The course starts out on road for approx. 1.5 miles, then turns into trail running to finish. After mile 2.5, it is downhill / flat trail running.
Night Course is an out -n- back course and the opposite than day course, it will be 75% road running & 25% dirt road / trail running. The course starts out on road, easy running. Approximately mile 1.5, course turns to grated gravel road for about a quarter of a mile then runners will run about a half of a mile of trails within the park, turn around and run same course back to start/finish. This course has approx. 117 ft in total elevation gain.
*Both courses are within the state park and there could be some small amount of traffic. There will be signage for drivers but as a runner be mindful to the road and drivers / non-competitors.
