About this race
A 5K at the Guilford Fair in Guilford, VT. This will be run on a hilly, loop course, on a widely varied mix of paved roads, dirt roads, and trails. With 226' of elevation gain, the first half of the course is mostly uphill. The second half is gradually downhill (with the exception of a very slight rise about 75 yards from the finish).
