The 5k & 10k are both flat and fast - perfect to start the new year with a PR. The half marathon on the other hand offers a challenging but fun course. It starts and ends flat but the middle 10k are challenging single track trails. The half marathon has a cutoff time of 2:45. This means the volunteers will be release after this time so the support will be minimal - aid station will be left unattended but race staff will be cheering you when you cross the finish line no matter how long it takes you!
