Runners will wind their way through a mix of Back 9 trails, golf course, hills, mud, and forest with spectacular views of Brockway Mountain. Misery loves company, so register in teams of 2 or 4…or take on the challenge as a solo individual. The goal? Complete as many loops as you can in the given amount of time, with only one team member (or your crazy, solo self) running at a time.
Our focus for this event is to get you closer to nature and do so while providing an atmosphere that is encouraging and supportive of an endurance run. A an endurance run offers runners a great opportunity to explore new distances and push past their own perceived limitations, without the threat of time cut-offs or DNF’s looming over them. Why? Because your finish distance is all up to you. At the end of every loop you have the option…call it a race, or push out Just One More Round? Your finish distance is your mileage when you stop. However you choose to run your race, remember…it’s YOUR race, it will be whatever you make it. As you complete your race, stick around for the party to celebrate while cheering on fellow runners!
