Course:
STROLLER FRIENDLY!
The race will start at the Harford County Equestrian Center and travel on paved paths through the property to meet up with the gravel Ma & Pa Trail. Runners do an out-and-back trip on the trail before returning to the Equestrian Center for the finish. The entire route is on firm surfaces suitable for strollers and folks that just don’t want to risk turning an ankle!
