The 8K course uses the Bald Hill Natural Area. The 30K course continues beyond Bald Hill to the Fitton Green Natural Area along the Mulkey Creek Trail and includes Amy's Trail and trails within Crestmont Land Trust. The 30K course includes over 3,000 feet of climbing. The 2 Mile and the 1/4 mile Kids Run are out-and-back routes from the Benton County Fairgrounds on gravel and paved multi-use path. Ages seven and under are free to participate in the 2 Mile race and do not need to register.

Race packet pickup is available at Five Star Sports in Downtown Corvallis on the day before the event between noon and 5:00 pm, and also on the morning of the event. The 30K offers an early start option for runners expecting to finish in more than 3.5 hours; early starters are generally excluded from age group awards unless all runners in their age group also took the early start. The 30K has a cut-off time at noon to reach the last aid station. Online registration and shirt orders close June 3 at 11:59 pm PT. Same-day registration is offered for all races. Awards are given to the top three male and female overall finishers and top age group finishers in the 30K and 8K. Volunteers are needed for race day.
