This will cause the course to change from previous events. Runners will take the ramp off of the bridge to the left hand side and follow the signs to the main road for the course. We will also have a water station visible from the bridge that you will want to aim for to get you on the course. We also are extending the bike to be 11 miles by taking the course to the vista point past The Dead Fish restaurant. You will exit the bridge like normal by turning right, but bypass the restaurant and continue up the hill to the vista point where you will ride around the circle and head back. Thank you so much for signing up for our event and if you have any questions please send them to customersupport@irecreate.org. Thanks! The irec Team
