Course
Runners choose road or trail. The road half marathon is a single USATF-certified loop, with road 10K and 5K alongside it. The trail 10K and 5K mix cross-country ground with single track, including some technical going along the banks of the Vermilion River. A 1-mile fun run completes the programme.
