Cuivre River State Park is located in Troy, Missouri. Runners are sent onto the race course in waves of 30-35 that have been seeded according to their predicted pace for a road half marathon & 10K race.
This year’s course will include incredible bluff views. Along the course, runners can expect wide fireman roads, narrow single-track trails, rolling hills, steep climbs (but not too many), and numerous creek crossings through the bottomland forest of Big Sugar Creek. Participants should also expect to experience your average Midwest rocks, roots, and mud, along with some spectacular wildlife. The striking views along the course will remind you of the famous Missouri Ozarks. The course offers new challenges for every level while enjoying the fantastic scenery.
Dogs are not permitted on the course or in the race.
