11AM for HIGH SCHOOL
DISTANCE: 3K(ISH) FOR ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL (this equates to two loops around the course and a jaunt around the soccer field on into the finish line.

AWARDS: Each finisher will receive a small medal (nothing fancy, folks)
ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL FIRST PLACE TEAM receives a $50 gift card and a gift basket with various items such as two free meal cards for use at the local Huckle Burger, a handheld running water bottle, etc.
HIGH SCHOOL FIRST PLACE TEAM WINNER will receive a $100 gift card as well as a similar gift basket.
THE BIG RULE: Parent and child MUST remain together for the entirety of the race. Parent and child may not separate throughout the duration of the course and must cross the finish line together, as a team. If you part ways at any point, you will be disqualified.
COURSE DESCRIPTION: The course will begin at the edge of the school soccer field. From there, you will enter our trail system that meanders through the woods. There will be roots, but the trail will be clear of any and all debris to ensure you can see where you are stepping. The trail has beautiful bridges scattered throughout that pass over creeks. Nearing the end of the first section of the trail, you will loop around a beautiful pond. From there, you will cross the road entrance to the school (which will be guarded for your safety). After crossing the road, you will enter the last section of the trail, also experiencing another bridge crossing! Upon exiting the trail, you will have plenty of time and space to spread apart from other runners as you make your way through a grassy section and back to the start/finish area to repeat your assigned laps. To finish, you will lap the soccer field one time.
Photography will be on-site and downloadable photos will be available to you for free after the race.
