Hopefully the stands will be *PACKED* with cheering spectators...<br /><br />There is a large hill (think Vet's Park) and we'll be running straight up it at least once. Word is there will be mini barriers (they're only tall if you're really short) that will help this process. Appropriate use of the off-camber nature of the hill will be incorporated as well. Nothing stupid...just good 'cross.<br /><br />Course will consist of rubberized track, grass, asphalt, cement pavement, gravel, and dirt. It's going to be FAST so bring your file treads.<br /><br />There will probably be two dismounts per lap - one double barrier and one runup.<br /><br />Parking is best in lot C (seen on the campus map), with overflow parking available in lot E:<br />http://www.svsu.edu/fileadmin/websites/ ... lorMap.pdf<br /><br />The track we're using is marked "27". The start/ finish straight will be heading north on the west side of the track. Most of the race will happen between the football field (50), track area (27), and (10), (34), (12), and the pond.Surly Bastardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01290741857681797419noreply@blogger.com
