Course Description
The Spring Classic course is relatively flat and smooth and is great for beginners, experts and speedsters alike. We carefully crafted a 10k loop out of an artisanal maze of twisting trails that runners will compete a number of times according to the distance chosen.
The start/end of the loop hosts the course’s only aid station.
THIS RACE IS CUPLESS. BRING YOUR OWN CUP OR BOTTLE FOR WATER/HOT PRODUCT IF WE HAVE IT.
