Course Maps
All three courses (10K, 5K, and 1K) start and end behind the Main Shelter.
The 10K and 5K courses head west and do the “5K course” course. The 5K runners/walkers will go directly to the shelter to finish, the 10K runners will go onto the east side to do the second half of the 10K segment. Courses will be clearly marked with flags and signage. The kids 1K course is the Valley Loop path and the kids will have a friendly animal leader and several “sweeps” so no one gets lost.
