Course Description
The run course for the Viking Dash 5K & 10K is a combination of wide hard packed logging roads and single track, semi technical trails.
The course is basically flat.
5K: (1 Loop)
* Participants will run down the main logging road (hard packed dirt) to a turnaround sign and then return to the finish location, where they will transition onto the
park trails. This initial distance is approx. 1.2 miles.
* Entering the park trails, runners will then do 1 loop of the Canebreak Trail - crossing over the main logging road onto the Gator Trail. The most technical part of the run course
will be the second half of the Gator Trail. The distance of the two trails is approx. 1.7 miles.
* Runners will exit the Gator Trail onto the main logging road and run approx. .2 miles to the finish line.
10K: (3 Loops)
* Participants will run down the main logging road (hard packed dirt) to a turnaround sign and then return to the finish location, where they will transition onto the
park trails. This initial distance is approx. 1/2 mile.
* Entering the park trails, runners will do 3 loops of the Canebreak Trail - crossing over the main logging road onto the Gator Trail. The most technical part of the run course
will be the second half of the Gator Trail. The distance of the two trails is approx. 1.9 miles. This includes a .2 mile section on the main logging road from the exit of the Gator
Trail back to the beginning of the Canebreak Trail.
