10 MILE RUN . . . The run course begins at the lake and proceeds a mile on blacktop road until it branches into the rolling hills of the Barboursville Park. For the next two miles the course terrain will be on trails that thread up and downhill. Pace will be moderate. At mile three the trail will be flat and fast as it runs along the Guyandotte River. At mile 6.5 the course feeds back on to park road and proceeds until mile 7. At mile 7 the course is back on trails with one hill (3/10) before it loops in a circle until it feeds down back to the finish line next to the lake. There will be three water stops at mile 3,6 and 9.
5K WALK . . . This course will follow an established course that runs to the soccer fields before returning. There will be a water station at the turn-a-round point.
5K TRAIL WALK . . . The trail walk will follow the course outlined above for the runners with the exception that it will return at the lake. There will be a water station at the lake for the walkers.

- At the light on rt60 turn right (west).
- From the next turning lane (100yds) turn left on Main Street, this will take you to the next signal light turn left for one block and turn right (at the next light). This road winds left and right past Barboursville Grade School and the VFD, at the first 4way stop sign turn left for one block and make a right (yield sign) on Martha Road.
- Park entrance is about a half mile on the right. (If you start going downhill you've gone too far.)
- Look for white signs through downtown directing towards Barboursville Park. The town has a no sign policy, so event signs will not be apparent.
