parking
Parking is available at River of Life Church starting on the north side of the parking lot by the youth building. Please use the last entrance, as the others will be used for the race path.
Other Info
Registration for all race distances will take place at the youth building on the north end of the parking lot. If participants are carpooling and would like to start a race time at a different indicated start time to stay with their group they can do so. See registration times above.
Restrooms will be available inside the youth building as well as a place to stretch and warm up.
ROUTE
All distances will be done on paved paths with an out-and-back course (30 milers will do a double out-and-back).
Please note that runners (and bikers) must obey all traffic laws, stop signs, and traffic lights to ensure participant safety. Since this is not an officially timed race, taking a few extra moments at a busy intersection is better than shaving off a few seconds on your run time.

Race Day Info
This will not be a typical race. The track will be open from 8am to 8pm, where runners can put in their miles within that time (4 laps per mile). During the day, we will have concessions and other activities around the complex. You can take breaks or run it all at once. We want this to be a full community event to raise money but also awareness of the global issue of human trafficking.
