Event Description

The 1/2 marathon course is mostly flat, with some gradual declines/inclines, on a paved river trail. There will be two points where you leave the trail and but still a paved surface.  Signage and persons will be at critical spots.

The 5K is an out & back, with a slight decline at mile 1 and incline on the return.

Due to the construction at Portland High School, we are unable to use the facility this year.  We are reworking the route, with a start/finish at the Bogue Flats Recreation Area Pavilion.  Please stay tuned for new route!
