Runners then turn onto the paved streets of historic Ellijay for a loop of a little over one mile before returning to Harrison Park. The final section completes another loop on the park's crushed gravel paths, finishing by running through a barn.
Awards are described as "unique." They are given to the overall male and female finishers, overall masters male and female finishers, and to first place winners in five-year age groupings. A shirt is guaranteed for participants who register by April 7, 2026; later registrants are not guaranteed a shirt or their preferred size.
Parking at Harrison Park is very limited. Organizers suggest parking at a nearby elementary school and walking to the park.
