The course has some rolling hills, a long downhill, and a gradual ascent up to the Lee bridge with a nice decent toward the James River and elevation gain of 387 feet per lap on the half course. Race starts and finishes downtown with tons of great hotels and restaurants in the middle of an evolving, revitalized RVA!

Spectator "hang outs": 7th street @ the Richmond Coliseum, Casa del Barco, Legend Brewery Co, Hull Street @ Manchester across from Flood Wall Park water stop, top of the flood wall overlook, and VA War Memorial.
