Course Notes
Since this is a two loop course, there will be passing involved. Please be mindful of the runners around you and yield to participants who are passing you. 
We will have volunteers throughout the course, so please take the time to thank them as you go by! We could not make the race happen without our wonderful volunteer crew.
