5-mile Race Course Description
The course starts on the Fort Lewis College campus near the Student Union, proceeds around campus on Rim Drive, then up into the Hillcrest neighborhood, down past the reservoir, around the back of Hillcrest golf course, and back to the FLC campus for a finish at the clocktower. Total distance is 4.9 miles. One aid station with water and Powerade is provided. There are a couple solid hill climbs, just enough to work up an appetite for your Thanksgiving dinner.

1-Mile Course
