Course Map
Many athletes are watching the weather for Saturday. Please note we WILL run the event even in the rain. HOWEVER, if there is lightning, for safety reasons, we will cancel the race. Please note, there are NO refunds in the event of cancellation. Our committee is in touch with the County Engineers and the Weather forecast.
Also, our current route requires bikers and walkers to traverse over a packed gravel surface for about ¼ mile before and after the bridge. We have worked hard to find a comparable distance route with minimum interaction with gravel.
The 5K course is an out and back course which starts in front of Morrison High School on Genesee Street and makes a right turn onto Prairie Center Road. Follow Prairie Center straight to Dixie Drive and then turn around and head back on Prairie Center Road to Genesee and back to Morrison High School.
Bikers will take Prairie Center to Hillside Road and turn left. Then they will turn left again at Harvey Road. They will follow Harvey Road to Henry Road and turn right. They will then turn left on Bunker Hill Road to Lister Road. Turn left on Lister and proceed to back to Harvey Road. You will turn right onto Henry Road and go back to Prairie Center Road, turn left and repeat. We will have guides at each intersection to show you the way. This route is comparable in distance and will also provide you with some exciting new scenery. We are confident you will love the new scenic route!
