Race announcements will take place at ~8:50 am around the check-in area at the Courthouse lawn. From there, we will move to the race start across the street.

Race will start at 9 am on Franklin St at the Grand Prix sign on the southbound lane.

Make your first right hand turn onto Old Corning Rd (and enjoy the climb!) and stick to the side of the road. 

Follow orange cones placed on the side of the road.

Race Details

You will be running with the flow of traffic for the first 5.6 miles.

A reminder that traffic will not be stopped during the race, and you must follow all traffic signals, paying special attention at Franklin St and NY-14 - stopping and waiting may be necessary. Failure to do so will result in disqualification and potentially injury or death.

There will be an aid station at approximately 2.9 miles, once you’ve turned onto Whites Hollow Rd. There will be water, Gatorade electrolyte drink, and some bananas. 

You will need to cross the road at about mile 5.6 - again, exercise caution and cross when it is safe to do so.

Finish line is at the Lucky Hare Brewing Bar & Grill Marina Location at the end of North Decatur St (Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bLkoyZxM3SdfiAbN9)

There will be volunteers along the course - they are there to help ensure your safety but cannot stop traffic - please exercise caution when crossing roads.

Post Race

At the finish line, you’ll be given a free drink token for use at the Lucky Hare Marina location, good for Saturday.

With the finish line and post race fun at the Lucky Hare Marina location (Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bLkoyZxM3SdfiAbN9), you may want to park closer to the finish and walk to the registration / start area. Or check in first, and then park near the marina and make your way back. It’s about 0.5 miles and flat - good for a walk or warmup.
