Course surfaces include undulating double-track dirt and single-track with roots, rocks, and short climbs. Both races begin with just under half a mile of pavement. Aid stations are provided on course and at the finish (5K: one on course plus finish; 10K: three on course plus finish). The event features chip timing, medical support, packet pick-up with optional early check-in the day before, post-race food, free professional photos, and an awards program with overall and age-group prizes. A free kids "Race for Treasure" for ages 11 and under is held near the staging area; no separate registration is required.
