The Experience
Half Marathon: This is a difficult course. It has over 2,000 feet of elevation gain and is very technical and rocky in some areas. The course takes you along some of the toughest trails in French Creek State Park and past Millers Point -from there you can see the vastness of the landscape you are in. If you are lucky you might even see a fisher cat which is a native weasel! 10K: A shorter version of our Big Woods course which does not include the "Secret Trail". This is a lollipop style course with an aid station at approximately mile 1.7 and 4.5. This is a swag-focused race, so you’ll receive great race swag at packet pickup. Instead of medals, we’re putting the focus on items you’ll actually use. **Shirt cut off date: One month from race day**
