Start—The start is at the goal post on the south practice field—where it was last year.

 

The first mile goes north onto the junior high playground area—this is also part of the current Junior High course. 

 

There is asphalt on the parking lot side (south side) of the playground---this is needed due to drainage ditches.

 

Follow the road (not on it) back towards the start area, then by the tree you will turn left towards the greenhouse and go behind the school.  The mile mark is the old white jeep on the hill. This is like the last few years.

 

There is asphalt there (if it gets paved before the 8th) and new dirt, but then you will head up the hill.   Turn like in the past at the top of the hill and go inside the fence and follow this to the far west end and turn right and go back to the start.

 

Difference on the last mile---you will not go back to the far loop.  At the Prairie Grass you will turn back to the greenhouse and follow this to the school---runners will go across the practice area to the finish line—the same spot as it has been in the last several years.
