Course

This is an open course. Racers will be sharing the road with vehicular traffic. Use caution at all times. It will be the athlete’s responsibility to print maps, and know the courses. MP3 players on the course are not recommended so racers can hear vehicles and on-course directions. All racers and spectators MUST obey all officials and emergency vehicles on the course at all times.

Each course will be marked on the left side of the street (going against traffic), with the following exceptions: Clark Rd, Schavey Road going north, and Herbison Road. Runners should stay on the left side of the road except in those areas. Sidewalks will be utilized during portions of the 10K and Half-Marathon course.

Starting lines will be outside of the track (the All-Abilities 1/4 Mile Run/Walk will be entirely on the track as noted above). The Half-Marathon, 10K and 5K races will start just outside the main gate of the football stadium. The Half-Marathon and 10K will head south toward the high school while the 5K will head north towards Herbison Rd.

For all races, there is a gravel path at the corner of W. Geneva Dr. and Riverview Dr. (near the water station at mile 4.5/2) that runs for approximately 100m. Please use caution on this path, as the gravel may shift, and it is on an uphill grade.

The Half-Marathon has a stretch of approximately 800m of dirt road on Norris Road (around mile 10), beginning at the turn at Cutler Road. Use caution, watching for stones and potholes.

The All-Abilities 1/4 Mile Run/Walk will start and finish on the DeWitt High School track. The route will be one lap of the track, finishing at the same finish line as the other races. All participants will receive a finisher medal. Parents are welcome to walk/run with their kids, or carry them as needed.

In 2024 to minimize contact, there will be a water station at Mile 4 and Mile 9 of the half marathon course. Participants should plan to carry needed hydration with them. Water will be provided at the finish line.
