COURSE: The course will be flat and fast. Excellent Spectator course! The city has put crushed gravel on some of the course. The course takes advantage of all the ballfield lights so it includes approximately 1/2 mile of concrete/asphalt for the varsity race and less than that for the JV race. We suggest that your runners use racing flats.
