Race Map

Here is an interactive link to the course pictured below. https://www.raceentry.com/maps/user/view/8844


It is a partial out and back course, making a turn around about two-thirds of the way through the course. At the turn around, there is a medical aid station with water.

Also, the fun run course makes the same lap around the La-z-boy ball field (in green), but then goes directly back to the start of the race.
