Detailed Course Descriptions
COURSES:
There are two main courses—one for the 50K, full marathon, and half marathon, and another for the 5K and 10K.
These courses are mostly on a paved, urban run/bike trail is flat and largely shaded. The courses are open and include two street crossings. You are responsible for crossing safely.
Marathon/half marathon course: Twelve (12) and six (6) out-and-back laps of approximately 2.2 miles, respectively. Each lap consists of a short out-and-back through the length of the parking lot (designed to pass the restrooms) and a longer out-and-back on Cady Way Trail. There is partial shade, and the course passes by the aid station twice each lap.
5K and 10K course: Two (2) and four (4) laps, respectively, of approximately 1.55 miles. Each lap consists of the same parking lot out-and-back, and a longer out-and-back on Cady Way Trail (but not quite as far out as the half/full course).
50K course: Th 50K distance consists of fourteen (14) complete marathon laps plus two of the shorter, parking lot laps.
Turn arounds for each distance will be clearly marked. The first turn-around on the trail is for the 5K/10K, and the second turn-around is for the full marathon and half marathon.
