The course: 

It is 5000 meters long and very spectator friendly. It is a combination of grass and dirt trails throughout the athletic fields and woods of the South View campus. After the first 200 meters, there is a very sharp left turn that athletes should be aware of. The course has some very sandy spots and athletes will cross a concrete sidewalk twice. The last 400 meters is in the football stadium. The athletes will enter the stadium and run on the interior grass of the track for 350 meters. The last 100 meters is the grass straightaway along the home side of the football/soccer field.
