From the organizer
This challenging course covers 30 kilometers (18.6 miles), from Ferry Road Park in North Bend through Coos Bay’s waterfront finishing back at Ferry Road Park. Run/walk the whole thing yourself or form a 3-person team and make it a run or walk-cheer-athon. The first leg is relatively flat, the second is moderately rolling, and the third is for your hill lover! Note, prices listed are for the entire team.
Aid stations close at noon and the finish line closes at 1:00 PM, so plan to finish the walk in 6 1/2 hours, the run in 5 hours.
Water will be available at the exchanges, approximately every 6 miles.
