Title: Striders 30K
Post by: allie on April 22, 2009, 05:51:42 pm
for those of you who have done this race before, what is the course like? from what i can gather, it looks like it follows the half marathon course backwards, then loops back to the start...correct? or is it different?

thanks

Yeah, that's pretty accurate.  It follows the 1/2 marathon backwards for 6 miles, then actually goes a bit further south before following a parallel road towards the start of the half.  Then it cuts over and follows the 1/2 marathon course for 9 miles to the finish.
