The course runs through wooded terrain with rolling hills and may include variable weather conditions. A single water station is provided on course and a digital clock is installed at the finish.

Registration is time-based with fees that vary by date and option: a no-shirt option for $25, early registration for $30, and $35 for later online registration or day-of entry. T-shirts are guaranteed for competitors registered before February 22; shirts after that date are available on a first-come, first-served basis. A $2 discount applies for XYZ participants.

An additional Police, Fire and Criminal Justice Challenge combines the finishing places of the top three runners from each eligible department or program; the lowest combined place total determines the winning department and a traveling trophy is awarded.
