Courses & Aid Stations

Half Marathon

Looking for a spring-time challenge? Take on the grit-testing Half Marathon!  There's a little bit of everything on this course: creek crossings, mud, roots, rocks, grinding climbs, great views, grassy rolling double-track, and swift, windy single-track.  The course is extremely well-marked with a generous 4 hour time limit, but the course record is HOT and hard to beat! Come have a crack at it!  

5K-ish Race & Fun Run

In the mood for a quick trail fix or trying out the trail scene for the first time? The 5K course will leave you feeling satisfied with its winding, rolling single track and refreshing April creek crossings.....
