The Sly Fox Half Madness course begins at 7:00 AM sharp in downtown St. Charles, and from there runners head west through residential neighborhoods before turning right toward Foundry Street and cutting through nearby Timbers Park. The race route gains more trees at this point, providing runners with a scenic route of the St. Charles countryside. After mile 10, much of the path on Dean Street leading to the finish line is familiar from the first half of the course.
