Exiting the Transition Area, runners will follow the designated run chute alongside the bike chute, leading onto the inside northbound lane of Lake Shore Drive.
Participants will trace the coned lane along the east side of Lakeshore Drive, soaking in the scenic beauty as they navigate their way down and back. Super Sprint athletes will find their turnaround point clearly marked by the Super Sprint A-Frame Sign, ensuring a seamless and hassle-free route.

The tranquil forest setting provides a refreshing backdrop as runners dive back into Cartier Park for another invigorating mile and a half.
Throughout the course, expect clear signage, cones, flour arrows, and dedicated support crew volunteers to guide your way. Stay fueled and hydrated with aid stations strategically located every mile, offering iced water and Gatorade Endurance Formula to keep you energized and focused on your performance.
