Course Info

This is an off-road course that loops twice around Croatan High School and it's athletic fields. It is not an extremely tough off-road course as we've had people ages 7 to 70 completing the course, but if you plan to use a stroller be aware that it will be more difficult as this is not a road race! Much of the course is on grass.
