The course is mostly double-wide, with sections of grass, dirt, rocks, and roots, plus very short paved sections when crossing park roads. It includes bridge crossings over Earl Rowe Lake. The terrain is relatively flat, featuring one short climb to a lookout point.
The event is cup-free. Each runner receives a reusable SpeedCup from a partner sponsor. Aid stations are provided on the course. A BBQ with meat and non-meat options is available for finishers.
Finishers receive a custom spinner medal. Awards are given to the top three male and female solo finishers in each distance. Registration includes entry into the park for one vehicle.
The event partners with the Procyon Wildlife rehabilitation centre, with fundraising efforts in its support. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
