Course Marking
The course will be finalized and prepared on the day of the event. In an effort to protect the forests and natural areas where the event takes place, the marking will be minimal. For this reason, we kindly ask you to review the course map before the race, pay close attention to the existing signs, and follow the instructions of the volunteers. Course marking details will be provided in the Participant Guide during the week of the event.
