Course Description: This course is the PowerBar Trail Race Course Backwards. So it's Nine glorious miles of true off-road challenges. Anything goes!! The 4.5 mile is the first loop of the nine miles. As this is a true trail run, no spikes allowed. Trail shoes recommended, but not necessary. While the course will have at least one water stop, we recommend that you carry a water bottle with you. Also, if needed you can switch distances in the middle of the race. No map available since it takes a unique path through the park, however, the course is extremely well marked and you only get lost if you completely zone out, so paying attention is a recommended idea :)

Volunteer: We are seeking volunteers for this event to do Road Marshalling and Water Stop. For your time your will receive a discount eligible for future YellowJacket Racing Events - called a Buzz Buck. If interested contact us here.
