The Course

"I talked to a lot of runners after the finish, and the universal imppressions wewe: "toughest course I've ever raced, and this was a great race."....Whether you run this as a serious race, or just a hard Saturday training run, you will be glad you did...you'll have a blast."

The course for the run and walk winds through the scenic Springmaid Mountain Resort, located in the Altapass Community just outside of Spruce Pine and a stone's throw from the Blue Ridge Parkway. We can tell you about it, but pictures say much more than words. To see a larger version of the photo, click on it and a new window will open.
