This race starts and finishes in Golden Eagle Stadium.
This and all races at Jacksonville High School will go
out and back along the flat, paved Chief Ladiga Trail.

NOTES:
Many high schoolers will be running this race. If complete teams (5 or more runners) exist
for more than one high school, high school team scores will be tabulated in addition to the
usual overall and age group tabulations. The high school runners compete for overall and
age group awards, but the high school teams are scored as if only high schoolers were running.
Please come out and encourage these young people to participate in more of our road races.
