Runners follow mostly single-track trails through forested hills and meadows for most of the course, which follows an out-and-back route that starts and finishes at the swimming lagoon area of Spring Lake Regional Park. From there, the route heads into Annadel State Park, where the trails wind through the park’s hills and hit their peak elevation between the mile 7 and 8 markers.
