Route Information:
Attached is route of the 5k and 10k events through the park. Both will start and finish at the same location.
The 5k will go around the park and take a right onto the Rillito river path. It will head straight past the Country Club bridge to a turn around spot and then head back along the path and enter at a different spot in the park to the finish line.
The 10k will also go around the park and take a right on the Rillito River path. It will take a left onto the Country Club bridge and continue on the opposite side of the river. Participants will follow this path until the pedestrian bridge at Mountain where the course will then take a right and cross over this bridge to the originial side of the river and then head back and enter the park to the finish.
There will be an aid station set up. It will be about the 1.25 mile mark. Both distances will pass this twice (5k at approximately 1.25 miles and 1.75 miles and the 10k at approximately 1.25 and 4.75 miles) so you can take the opportunity to get water as needed. read more
