Course and logistics
The race begins out back at Boal City Brewing and follows marked trails. The route leaves the brewery along the gravel driveway of the Boal Estate Mansion, passes beneath oak and maple trees and by Columbus Chapel. The course moves through recently cut farm fields, the Stan Yoder Preserve natural area and Blue Spring Park, both managed by the Center Region Park and Recreation. The course is not flat and includes several hills. Parking is available at Boal City Brewery; roads remain open to traffic, and participants and pedestrians are advised to take care when crossing streets. Packet pick-up is available race morning for a limited period. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
