5K Course Description

Mile 2
Runners loop through flat wooded trails around ponds before hitting the main park road. The 10k course will split off briefly before connecting back together for a short period.
Mile 3
Runners head back into the woods weaving up and down hills before entering the main event site. The biggest elevation change will be in the final mile heading back to the main event site.
