Marked by rolling hills and an overall elevation change of about 400 feet, the course starts on the Groveton High School track and field complex and takes runners on a combination of mostly paved roads mixed with short intervals of hard-packed gravel track at both the start and the half-way point. Those running the half marathon make a single out-and-back run along the route, while those running the full marathon make a second run along the same route.
