Any changes for this year’s event will be posted soon.
The 10k, Half Marathon, and 30k all begin at the Special Event Area at the very rear of the park and take the first left onto the Riverscene trail
After starting on the Riverscence trail, you’ll come about an open field on your right. You’ll turn left BEFORE entering the woods and follow the trail west with the tree line on your left. In less than half a mile you’ll intersect with River Scene Trail and you’ll take a hard right switching back on to the trail in the woods. You’ll will stay on this trail until you exit the woods on to Kieffer Creek Road. You’ll turn left and head through the rail road tunnel and keep to your left hopping on to the well worn track in the grass to the left of the road also known as white connector 7. The large field will be visible to your right on the other side of the road. You are looking for the entrance to the woods on your left about a football field away. Turn left into the woods and keep to your left. It’s time to go up!
You will be on Lone Wolf Trail taking you up to the ridge line where you might catch a quick glimpse of the vista below before heading back down. You will keep to your right to stay on Lone Wolf and head down the ‘backside’ once you get to the bottom you’ll keep left at the intersection and head to our lone water crossing on the course. Smile for the photographer as your navigate the water!
You then head up Grotpeter West, past 4 miles and cross Ries Rd. You then take the old Grotpeter Trail which shoots you downhill on some nice swithback trails all the way past 5 miles and eventually spits you back out near Kiefer Creek Rd.
You’ll run next to the road past the trestle and then reenter the woods on your left about a half mile from the finish. Those doing the Half Marathon and 30k will continue on the road past the finish and begin the loop again. Half Marathon runners will run a short loop around the field before finishing.
For the safety of our volunteers and participants, the course cut off for Sunday’s 30k is 5 hours. All participants must begin their final 10k loop prior to 11:30 to be allowed to continue. Any participant that has not started their last loop by that time will be directed through the finish line and automatically moved to the next lowest distance. Course support and volunteers will also be released from their posts at that time.
