Course:
The Glacial Trail Run takes place in the northern unit of the Wisconsin Kettle Moraine State Forest. The trails consist of rolling hills with some rocks and other normal trail obstacles. There are no sentries on the course and runners will need to cross several roads. Trail intersections will be marked with ground arrows. The course is out and back for both races. There will be a short section of road at the start to get to the trail. For the full couse description with photos, click here.
NOTE:
It will be dark for the first few miles (about 40 minutes) of the 50 mile race, so those runners will need a flashlight/headlamp. There will be a drop box at the first AS to leave your light, or any other gear you might want to leave there.
