5K Course

  • The 5K course will cover the first and last 1.5 mile sections of the figure eight 10K loop .  This first 1.5-mile section will be on technical single track with rocks, roots and plenty of elevation.  
  • All 5K runners will turn left at approximately 1.9 miles, at water stop 1, and then complete the back half of the course.
  • The back half will continue on beautiful single track and then traverse down the sandstone precipice of the park.  This area is very popular with the mountain bike community. 
  • The course will conclude with a technical rock garden section then an open, fast, dirt road finish.

Water Stops

  • There will be 1 water stop on the 5K course at approximately 1.4  miles and this will also be your marker for the turn off.

10K & 20K Course

  • The 10K and 20K course will begin with the same first 1.5 miles as the 5K.
  • The 10K and 20K will then split off and add on a gorgeous, very hilly, and technical 3.1 mile loop before returning to the water stop again at approximately 4.5 miles.
  • Those doing the 20K will repeat the 10K loop a second time.
  • For 20K participants, there will be an additional water stop as you complete the first 10K loop before heading out again.

Water Stops

  • 10K water stops - 1.4 and 4.5 miles
  • 20K water stops - 1.4, 4.5, 6.2, 7.8, 10.8
