Course Description
|
On the 10K loop, you will see a variety of trails:
Your first section will explore the new set of trails that were created in Spring 2018, featuring big bank turns that allow for fast down hill running into a valley and followed by a nice big climb on the other side. Prairie: This section presents runners with gentle rolling hills right at the tree line of the forest. There will be occasional rocks and roots, but it will not be the most challenging part of the course. Singletrack: The majority of the course will take place on groomed dirt singletrack. This section of the course presents runners with more roots and rocks, but will be cleared of leaves to the best of our ability to help you see the trail beneath you. This section is all dirt and have several rolling hills with a few steeper descents and climbs thrown in. The 10k loop will begin with the 5k loop, then include an addition, but different loop to hit the full distance. |
