The 10K (6.2 miles) course (map) is an out and back course. It starts on the road beside the shopping center and descends a fast 1 mile to a flat scenic run along the James River for about 2.1 miles to the turn around point. The return course is a reverse of the outgoing, including back up that same starting hill.

The course has 4 water stops at approximately miles 1, 2, 4 and 5. Water and other refreshments are available after the race.
