About the Run
The course will be marked and has one aid station near Mile 2. We aim to have volunteers at all major intersections.
Place your bike back in its location on the rack and start the run. Leave the transition area and proceed to the right out of the Patty Center parking lot, staying on the sidewalk. Proceed along Tanana Loop to the roundabout and take the first right to continue up the Tanana Loop hill, on the left shoulder facing traffic. Turn left onto N. Tanana Dr., by the ski hut, and run down through the parking lot all the way to the back, then right at the north end, behind the geophysical institute. Continue on N. Tanana, on the left facing traffic, until you reach Farmer's Loop. Turn right onto the bike trail. Make a right onto Alumni Drive (stoplight) and head back on the sidewalk to the finish at the west entrance to the Patty Center.
While on the Farmer's Loop bike path, please keep an eye out for others who may be using it. Stay right.
When you get onto Alumni Drive you MUST stay on the sidewalk since bikes will still be on the course and we don't want an accident.
Please pass with care, be aware of your surroundings and watch for cars!
Don't want to get lost on race day? Good news. We will host an optional run course preview on Sunday, April 28 at 11 am. Meet at the Patty Center for an easy 3.1 mile jog.
