Participants can choose from the following course distances:

The 5K and 10K events use a 1.56-mile out-and-back course. Runners in the 5K complete this loop twice, while those in the 10K complete it four times. The Half Marathon utilizes a separate 3.18-mile out-and-back course, which participants must complete six times to reach the full distance.
