Course Setter's Notes:
Greece Canal Park was recently mapped and we have held a few events there. It is a very green and wet park generally but with this dry summer and quite a bit of upkeep by the park groundskeepers it makes for a fun Park Map (mostly on trails and through open areas).
Instead of offering multiple loops out of 1 location – there will be map exchanges out at 4 different controls. Maps at those controls will be strategically sequenced based on your order of arrival – your next leg is unlikely to be the same as the runner before/after you. When reaching one of the exchanges, you take the top map & discard your previous map.
The winner will be the 1st person to reach the finish (regardless of distance traveled)
For our faster runners, you’ll have plenty of chance to stretch your legs. Course length of nearly 7km is possible.
For our newer or slower competitors this tailors to a wonderful time in the woods, with as little as 3km of course.
This will be a punch-less mass start – be sure to arrive plenty early to get registered!
Instruction is available at all events, just ask at the registration table. Feel free to bring friends and family.
Pre-packaged snacks, fruit and jugs of water/Gatorade will be available.
Don't forget to sign up to volunteer and pre-register.
See you in the woods!
