Runners are set to start the race in front of Moultonborough’s historic landmark the Castle in the Clouds, a 16-room mansion on a more than 5,000-acre estate here near Lake Winnipesaukee in southern New Hampshire. From there, runners will make their way downhill for the first two miles and then proceed onto a eight-mile-long loop section of the race, passing by gorgeous waterfalls along the way. Runners finish the race back at the Castle’s carriage house.
