The 5k uses one bluff climb and a mix of double-track and single-track valleys.
Aid stations are provided on the loops with water, snacks, Gu, and orange-flavored Tailwind. Stations are cupless, so runners should bring a reusable cup or bottle; collapsible silicone cups will be available for purchase at check in. The event is cupless overall.
