The course is a loop of approximately 2.27 kilometers (1.42 miles) that winds through the training fields, past the main stadium, and around parking areas within the complex. Surfaces include a mix of dirt and asphalt/concrete; gaiters are recommended for non-paved sections.

Main Street ATY provides continuous support for runners, including a 24-hour aid station with meals and beverages, medical coverage staffed by EMTs and paramedics, a warming area, a napping tent with limited cots, showers in the clubhouse locker rooms, and options for tent, cot and sleeping bag rentals.
