The course is nestled between the Sacramento Mountains and the glistening gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park, passing by points of AIR FORCE HISTORY ALONG THE WAY. With only 52 to 65 feet of elevation gain, the race provides a uniquely flat course on paved roads, creating the perfect conditions for your first and/or fastest 26.2, 13.1 or 3.1 miler!
