RACE ROUTE:

Race starts right in front of the former New Florence ambulance garage which is right beside the firehall. We will run up a block make a left head towards the New Florence Manor. Then quickly jumping on route 711 for about a tenth of a mile before hitting Boswell road. From there you run out towards the state gamelands running by the Laurel Hill Iron Furnace before turning around. From there you run back a couple tenths the same way you just came until you Pick up Furnace lane and head back towards town. Then you don’t have to make any turns for almost a mile when you make a turn on Mulberry Street run a couple blocks down to 15th street where you turn left and finish out the last tenthish mile the same tenthish mile how you started, finishing back in front of the old ambulance garage. 

We will have someone stopping traffic as you cross 711. Also to slow traffic down the tenth of a mile you are on 711 before hitting Boswell road. It’s not a closed course but traffic is very minimal. We do ask you to be cautious and be aware of your surroundings. 

The course is exactly 3.10 miles. I measured it numerous times. While measuring I made sure to run the most efficient route so that means running the tangents to you take the most direct line as a professional would. The course has a net gain in the first half of the race and net decline the second half. 

There is one water stop on the course we will have water there, its located right past the furnace right before the turn around there. Right at the 1.45 mile mark. Please keep all cups/trash located to that area. There will be a trash can there to throw cups in. Do not throw trash down the road. Where its located you will pass it go about 30 yards and turn around so you pass it twice quickly if you would need another drink. Make sure you go around where the sign that says Turn Around Here and the marking on the ground.

Ive added Map My Run to the bottom of this registration page so you can use it to see the course outline, elevation profile and if you want to upload the map to your watch to use you are now able to.

RULES:

We ask that no pets be brought on the course or into the firehall or around the event. We love animals but not everyone is comfortable around them. This is for safety and insurance reasons.

We DO NOT mail awards. Stick around to receive your award. We do not allow you to come and pick it up at your convenience either. We understand you may have to leave early for work or family obligations so please be an adult and get with us beforehand if you absolutely must leave early. We highly discourage having someone pick yours up during the awards because again you should have seen us before leaving and not everyone has that luxury to have someone there. We believe as a running community we all need to support one another in this community as it grows with each race. That support includes all the way through the award ceremony. We all need to celebrate the accomplishments of every participant at all events we attend and the hard work that goes into each persons training to get them from start to finish. That's why we want you to stick around. Also its nice to have people cheer others on as they finish. 

Headphones are allowed, we ask you to please be courteous to fellow runners and that you listen to your audio at a reasonable volume so you can hear other runners coming or calling out if they are passing you. Also so you can hear those directing traffic or traffic coming, again it is not a closed course. If you are pushing a stroller please be aware of other runners and vehicles give them the right away.

We will do our best to make sure the roads are in good condition for the race, being a December race be prepared and dress appropriately for the conditions that may be present. 

Also no smoking, alcohol or drug use is permitted in any area the race will be using this includes parking lots, staging area, race course or restrooms. These are our rules. Remember this is a kid friendly event where young lungs are at play along with the possibility of adults with health issues. we are trying to make this event safe and comfortable for everyone.

No throwing any trash/garbage along the course. Whatever you start with you have to end with. The only exception to throw trash away is at the water stop at that garbage can there.

WALK DIVISION:

We will be awarding the top 3 overall male and top 3 overall females who are in the walk division. You must also finish within the 1:05 time frame. There is no running allowed. You will be disqualified if caught running and your signed up for the walk. There will be serious race walkers present so running even as you see the finish line come into view will be grounds for disqualification.
