Description
2014 Cross Country Challenge 8K, 5K & 2K:
• All events start and finish at Minneola Trailhead Park.
• The courses are run primarily on grass and sand/dirt trails in and around Minneola Trailhead Park.
• We will also be using the tree-lined portion of the South Lake Trail.
• The course is designed to be tougher, slower, and have more hills than most races. Therefore the Cross Country Challenge namesake.
• There will be natural obstacles you will have to jump over much like you would see on a run through nature. i.e. tree stumps, hay bales, leaves, etc. Not a run for the faint at heart.
• You want fast and easy, go to the parkrun.com and come join us for the post race party.
• The 2K will start at 7:30am (15 minutes early), designed to be for the children or absolute beginner who wants a change of pace.
• Use the 2K as a warm-up for the 5K and 8K.
• The 5K and 8K will start at 7:45am.
