COURSE MAPS:
5k Course
The 5k course takes you up and over “Upchuck” until the aid station. Then you will run back down “Dan” until it connects to “Simple Tools,” which you will take all the way back to the start/finish!. The course will be well marked.
There is roughly 430 feet elevation gain on the 5k course.
10k Course
The 10k course is more challenging and takes you up and over “Upchuck” and past the aid station. You will then connect with “Will’s Traverse” for some of our favorite single track of the course. From “Will’s” Traverse” you will hop onto “Airport Escalator” as you head up Beacon Hill, then back onto “Upchuck” for the last switchback climb to the top. From there you will start your descent, starting with “Tire Trail” then connecting once again to “Upchuck” (though a completely different section), then on to “Disorderly Conduct” and “The yard” until the aid station. From the aid station you will continue down “Dan” until it connects to “Simple Tools,” which you will take all the way back to the start/finish!. The course will be well marked.
There is roughly 830 feet elevation gain on the 10k course.
AID STATIONS:
5k: There will be one aid/water station on the 5k course. The aid/water station is located after mile 2, just before you start your final push to the finish line.
10k: There is one aid/water station on the 10k course, but you will pass it twice. The 10k course is shaped sort of like a figure 8 or a bow (so you have new amazing trial and views the entire time!). Due to the shape of the 10k course, the aid/water station is ideally located in the center of the figure 8 (or bow). You will pass it first after mile 2, and again just after mile 5.
Please help us keep this amazing park clean by depositing all garbage (including cups, gel and energy bar wrappers, etc.) in the provided receptacles.
MEDALS:
Medals will be awarded to the top three males and females in both the 5k and 10k divisions.
DOGS:
Dogs are great, but please leave them at home for this event.
