Course
If you've not run this before, the course is marked but very unofficially! It is marked in chalk, which can obviously be removed by rain, cars, bikes, etc. so I recommend knowing the route or having it on your phone/watch! If you need me to send you a GPX file, email ozarktrailrunners@gmail.com
A few notes on the course. You can generally follow signs for the Traverse. The only time the course diverts from the Traverse is on Kessler, where you will split onto Crazy Mary.
The trail section across 15th is mostly closed due to construction, so make sure to pay attention. You will continue on Duncan to 15th, cross directly but slightly to the left. You will be entering the apartment parking lot where you will head to the back and rejoin the trail.
Note that there is an event happing Sunday at Centennial, so there may be markings for that race and they may mess with the chalk markings, so make sure to just stay on the Traverse! The next change is at the Centennial exit, where we will be using the new trail that connects to the paved path off of technology (you no longer run down technology!). You will be making a right on pop rocks coming off the traverse. My Jeep will be the aid where the trail connects to the path.
The final change is at Markham. You will be making a right at the first intersection after the tunnel to climb the switchbacks. You will descend on the old social trail back down to the lower traverse cut through spitting you out on Maple.
Optional, unmarked, loop for the 55k
