RACE DETAILS
Date: September 14, 2024
Location: Luray, VA

Join us at Lake Arrowhead, just outside Shenandoah National Park, where we'll start our race. We start off with a bit of a hill climb for the first two miles before you get to let your legs stretch out and coast from miles 2 through 4. Then, we're heading back up! It's a paved course, but your calves may still notice the challenge of the rolling hills on the second part of this course. Surrounding your run are gentle green hills, picturesque farm fences, and inviting tree groves. Once you hit mile 10, it's downhill to the finish line!
