Course Information:

The race starts in the town square and proceeds to Veterans park where the runners have to get to Spikebuck Mound by crossing the road and going through the park.  They will be handed a bracelet as proof they made it to the mound. On the return run around the park they will cross the road once more and proceed to Spikebuck Trail, this is the only part of the trail not paved.  Once back to the street the proceed back to the square and when they cross the starting line again that is exactly 2 miles. Walkers can end their walk then if they like.  On the second lap the runners DO NOT cross back to the park but continue to the trail and come back around once on the square instead of heading straight for the starting line again you will be directed back behind City Hall to circle around and will approach the Start/ Finish line from the opposite direction in which you started. The Finsh Line is the same line as the start. You can find a map here:  http://www.eveningharvest.com/flyers/2014/5Kaltanate.jpg
