The longer distance option will be near a half marathon in length, and the shorter race will cover 10k. Both trails will definitely present runners with a good test of their fitness, as well as offer a delightful tour of the park. Both courses will begin at the overlook in the northwest corner of the park, descend a steep single track, and then wind up, down, and around, in an entertaining series of circuitous loops through the woods and along the glittering waters of the lake.
