Course
Technical single track in Steele Creek Park, Bristol, with over 2,000 ft of gain across roots, rocks, steep climbs, creek crossings and fast descents. Steep ridge lines, narrow switchbacks and rocky forest paths make this an experienced trail runner's course rather than a first half marathon.
