The 12K follows a long loop on quiet, paved suburban country roads. The course crosses the I-49 bridge, passes the Leggett & Platt headquarters, then joins the Ruby Jack path and crosses Rt 66 again for a final loop back to the Drive-In theater. County sheriff officers will provide safety at critical road crossings. The 12K course is USATF-certified and qualifies for a Missouri age-record or personal record.
The 5K starts at the same Drive-In location, stays off Rt 66, and proceeds toward the Ruby Jack path for an out-and-back with the turnaround at the trail parking lot adjacent to Leggett & Platt headquarters. The route is almost entirely on the Ruby Jack trail.
Awards include overall male and female prizes for each race, age group and age-graded awards, Missouri age-record awards, and finishers' medals for all finishers. The event also features vendors, music, a raffle for gift certificates, and an awards ceremony for both races. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
