Marathon Course Notes:
- The course is predominantly paved with 2 dirt/gravel road sections. The first section is approximately Mile 6 – 6.5 and is a flat section adjacent to the river. The second section of dirt/gravel road is Miles 16 – 17.5. This section has two approximate 0.3 mile uphills connected by a 0.7 mile descent. These dirt sections are mostly compact, with loose gravel on the shoulders and the middle.
- The start is on the Cranberry Springs Bridge, which straddles the New River. You will be starting above the New River.
- The finish is on grass. The final 245 meters are a semi-loop of the field behind the Riverside Restaurant.
