Course Details (Course Map & Elevation):
The course is an out-back format that starts adjacent to the Watkins Glen H.S. Track, quickly joining the Catharine Valley Trail headed south. Runners will ascend a mere 235 feet in the first half with a corresponding gradual descent toward the finish. Eighty-five percent of the course will be run on the gorgeous rails-to-trails and cindered Catherine Valley Trail. Fifteen percent covers flat, fast and scenic paved miles through the heart of historic Montour Falls. Runners will pass through historic Montour Falls using Canal and Main Street on the return at approximately 10 miles. Runners will finish with a climactic ¾ lap on the Watkins Glen Central High School all-weather track.
