Course & Timing

We're in North Georgia, and there's not much that anyone can call flat & fast...But this one is.

It's a three lap course, so it's perfect for shooting passers by with water.  We've also got a complete close on the road, so it's super kid friendly.  

We'll be chip timing the start & finish, so if you're looking for a PR...this could be your event.
