Course:
We have a new course for 2009. The course will start and
finish in front of the Derby Community Building and it will
be run in a clockwise direction facing traffic. 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. PLEASE
RUN CAREFULLY! 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.
