Triathletes will continue on to the bike portion which will be a one loop, 29 milecourse that will prove to be very challenging (Course Map/Elevation Profile). Once you leave the park you will head downhill for a few miles. Soon you will reach a cutoff road, Balantic Hill, to route 205. This is a quick taste of some of the grief to come. Once down a quick decent, you will then head to 205 southbound. Here, you will find the courses longest stretch of flat terrain. You will then turn onto route 23 west and begin a subtle climb for about 8 miles until you reach the top of a very long decent. At the bottom, you should be totally rested, and you will need it. After you make a right in Morris onto route 51, you begin a slow climb on undulating roads. 4 miles or so down 51 you will turn right onto route 12. What wil about to happen will not be pretty. Once you have survived, you then have the luxury of a downhill finish back into the park. Again, there will be NO aid stations. The bike portion will be TOTALLY self-supported.
Thirdly for the triathletes, their challenge will finish with a quick 26 YARD swim inGilbert Lake as a simple out and back of 13 yards each way. No wetsuits allowed!
If you have chosen to be part of a team, you will be one of 3 participants. You get to chose your challenge of the full Rat Snake course. Each loop of the run course will be run by 2 different athletes. After the first runner completes the first loop of the trail run, she/he will swap out with the second runner. When the second runner finishes the second loop of the trail run, he/she will swap out with the biker who does the WHOLE bike course by her/himself. All 3 team members must do the swim portion, touching the buoy together, and crossing the finish line together.
For those who do not wish to race, participants have one other option on race day. Adults and children alike will have the opportunity to do a 3K jog/stroll around scenic Gilbert Lake. It is a dirt path with some rocks, depressions, and a slight uphill. This course will be a two loop adventure for all.
Please stick around after your event as there will be FREE BEER and PIG ROAST FOR ALL!!!!!! This kind of gathering is what it is all aboutremembering Ken!!!
