Course Description
Starting Time: 8:15am
-
The beginning of the race is on Umpawaug Road (about 1/10th of a mile from the farm) and has runners head left onto the very scenic Station Road and then head into town, passing the Redding Post Office Mile one is very flat with only 41 feet of total inclines and 30 feet of declines.
-
Mile 2 is also very flat, leading runners down "Serentity Mile" on Simpaug Turnpike. Make sure to hit the candy zone at the end of mile 2.
-
Mile 3 sees runners turn left onto Marchant Road and head back to the farm. The terrain here is a little bumpy, but no hill is tough and all short uphills are followed by downhills. Enjoy the nice downhill at the end.
-
At the 2.9 mile mark runners re-enter the farm, run through a chicken coup, through a meadow and to the finish line.
