2017 - Luc's Run
2017 distances
Running
10K
The 10K race begins at Tuolumne Veteran's Memorial Hall in beautiful Tuolumne, CA. The course winds through the streets of Tuolumne, a historic logging town that was an important part of California’s modern development. After touring through Tuolumne, the course heads out for an out-n-back segment on Apple Colony Road that is filled with peaceful countryside views. On the return trip, you enter back into the edge of town before winding along a short section of hard-packed dirt roads on the Westside property, which belongs to the Tuolumne Band of Mi-Wuk Indians. After a short stint on dirt roads, you’ll head to the finish line back at Tuolumne Veteran’s Memorial Hall. The 10K course is best described as “rolling” with a few moderately steep, but short hills. This course is guaranteed to challenge you! There are 3 aid stations on the 10K course that will be serving water, Gatorade, bananas, M&Ms, and Oreo cookies. If you decide to pass up on the treats at the aid stations, you’ll find more at the runner’s replenishment table after crossing the finish line! New to this year’s event is a chip timing system for rock-solid timing results. And there are no time limits on the course. Walkers and runners are equally welcome at this event! Each participant will receive a 2017 Race Shirt and an official Finisher's Medal. Overall awards and age-group awards will be presented after each event. All proceeds from this all-volunteer non-profit event will go towards scholarships given out by the Major Lucas Gruenther Legacy Foundation.

2-Mile
The 2-mile race begins and ends at Tuolumne Veteran's Memorial Hall in beautiful Tuolumne, CA. The all-road course winds through the streets of Tuolumne, a historic logging town that was an important part of California’s modern development. The 2-mile race starts at the same time as the 10K race. Both races follow the same course for the first 1.6 miles and then the courses split. As the 10K runners head out on Apple Colony Road, you will finish your tour through Tuolumne before arriving at the finish line at Tuolumne Veteran’s Memorial Hall. The 2-mile course has a few moderately steep, but short hills. Overall, the course has less elevation change than the 10K course. It is a fun course for runners and walkers alike! There will be one aid station on the 2-mile course that will be serving water, Gatorade, bananas, M&Ms, and Oreo cookies. If you decide to pass up on the treats at the aid station, you’ll find more at the runner’s replenishment table after crossing the finish line! New to this year’s event is a chip timing system for rock-solid timing results. There are no time limits for this event. Each participant will receive a 2017 Race Shirt and an official Finisher's Medal. Overall awards and age-group awards will be presented after each event. All proceeds from this all-volunteer non-profit event will go towards scholarships given out by the Major Lucas Gruenther Legacy Foundation.

Kids Run (10 & Under only)
The Kids Run is a short, fun race designed for kids ages 10 and under. Last year, our youngest participant was 9 months old! The Kids Run starts one hour before the 10K/2-mile race so there is plenty of time for parents to cheer on their kids before participating in their own 2-mile or 10K race. The Kids course circles West Side Memorial Park. The course is 1/4 mile long and will be lined with plenty of safety volunteers to ensure everyone stays on course! Parents are welcome to chaperone their child or push them along in a stroller. Every child will receive a 2017 Race Shirt and an official Finisher’s medal. Overall awards will also be presented after the race. All proceeds from this all-volunteer non-profit event will go towards scholarships given out by the Major Lucas Gruenther Legacy Foundation.
