Course and logistics

The course uses hard pack dirt trails, grassy areas, and sand. The race is rain or shine; recent or on-day rain may create muddy sections. Friendly, non-aggressive dogs on leash are allowed and should start near the back so their start time is recorded fairly. Strollers that can handle the described terrain are permitted. There is no time limit to complete the race. Check-in and bib pick up take place on race morning at Autumn Lake Winery near the start/finish. Race day registration will be available onsite via QR codes and all registration is handled online. The winery will be open in the morning for bottle sales only. Results will be posted online.
