Course Map:
The course map we received at the meet last year doesn't lend itself to being scanned or copied and still be legible. The course begins and ends on the high school ball fields
before entering the state forest to the south. The course in the forest mainly follows access roads which are unpaved. Both courses are basically flat, there are some short sections of loose sand to watch out for. The 3k course
is a single loop while the 5k has multiple loops. We'll arrive in time
to see the course, which can be part of your warmup.
Packing List:
Clothes:
• Uniform

• Racing shoes if you have them. We'll have spike elements of different lengths available depending on the footing.
