Course, logistics and awards
The course starts and finishes at the winery and runs through vines and grass. It is a mostly cross-country style route with areas of uneven footing and is laid out as two laps; participants may stop after one lap if they prefer. The event uses wave starts. Packet pickup is race-day only. A virtual participation option is available with either race-day packet pickup or shipped packets (shipping and handling fees apply).
The event names the Traverse Bay Children’s Advocacy Center as its local charity partner. Age group awards are offered for top finishers in each category; winners must start with the first wave to be eligible and awards are available for pickup on race day only. Dogs are not allowed on site due to farm/USDA restrictions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
