The course is 13.1 miles and follows rural back roads around the lower St. George peninsula. The route features ocean views, gentle hills, quiet coves, a fishing village at Port Clyde, Marshall Point Light House, Drift Inn Beach, and a return to Blueberry Cove Camp. Mile markers are present for all 13 miles and water stations are placed approximately every 2 miles. Finish times are recorded and all participants receive finisher medals.

Walkers may participate with runners; walkers are not timed and must check in before starting. Pets are not allowed except for service animals; baby strollers are permitted.
