Parking: There is a $10 self pay fee at the main gate of the Buck Ridge Recreation Area, please make sure to self-register and pay the day use fee. Hensley Lake also participates in the America the Beautiful Pass Program if you have one you can display it.
Please allow extra time to pay your parking fee, unfortunately the park is not allowing us to hand out self pay envelopes prior to race day. They will also not be onsite to collect payment, the only method will be the kiosk at the entrance.
Once you enter through the main gate of the Buck Ridge Recreation Area you will follow the road straight and then turn left into the boat parking lot. If this lot is full there are two others just past it. Then it will be a short walk back towards the gate and the Start/Finish area will be on your left.
If you arrive early enough there is a small parking lot near the start/finish, this will fill up very quickly though. NO double parking or parking on the shoulder.
The new kiosk outside the Buck Ridge gate takes credit card payment.
There is absolutely no parking on the shoulder of the roadway or in any place that will obstruct access. The park rangers will issue citations.
Race Start Location: Will be just inside of the Buck Ridge Recreation main gate on the right hand side (north side).
Shirts: If the shirt size you registered for does not fit please wait until after the race to switch it out for another size.
Course Markers: The course will be marked with the following: signs with directional arrows and orange ribbon. The course should be very easy to follow so long as you follow the markers.
Aid Station: There will NOT be an aid station for the 10k, please be sure to carry some water with you. This course will take longer to complete than a road 10k.
