Course Map
The course starts and finishes at the winery! This is a cross country style route around the vineyards and includes some areas of uneven footing, but is very suitable for both runners and walkers! This is a 2 lap course, so if you decide to head to the finish wine after lap 1 instead of the finish line, that is fine!

Also, if you intend on running, but later change your mind and would like to do either of these options, that's ok too! If you are definitely going to have us ship your packet and run virtually though, we do recommend you follow the instructions below:
