We run over a variety of surfaces, including grass, dirt, crushed stone paths, and a wooden
bridge – all of them spike friendly. There is one place runners will cross a driveway, but they
can still safely wear spikes. Extra maps will be available on race day. The course will be
well marked with flags and painted lines.
The course will NOT be open for practice in the week leading up to the Conference Championship.

ribbons that coaches can pick up in an envelope.
The awards ceremony will take place outside near the concession stand.

All teams must set up their camps in the area by the softball fields. It is out of the way of the course
and very near the portable bathrooms. Runners in upcoming races will have to cross the course to get
to the starting line. Please advise them to do so carefully. It is recommended they get to the starting
line 20 minutes ahead of race time to avoid getting stuck by racer traffic.
Once the first race has started, the course is off limits for warm-ups and cool-downs. There is a
2-mile loop trail heading North off campus that can be used. See map for details.
Restrooms:
We will have multiple portable toilets very near the team camps. Only in the event of
