Course:
The course will start and finish in front of the Derby
Community Building and it will be run in a counter-clockwise
direction facing traffic. The turns and some straights
will be marked with yellow arrows painted on the highway.
It's your responsibility to look for them. It's 31.5
miles on 3 loops of rolling hills in a beautiful country
setting on asphalt and dirt. It's a great event for
those wanting to do their first ultra run. There is no
cut off. This is a 31.5-mile fun run with no bells &
whistles. The course is not closed to traffic. Derby
Road is in the middle of nowhere but travelers use it to get
somewhere. SO, IN ADDITION TO EXERCISING YOUR BODY
PLEASE EXERCISE CAUTION! This is a very low key, no
frills race. If you are expecting port-a-potties,
expos or to be waited on, I suggest you stay home.
