2023 distances
Running
10K
The Makin' Hay 10K is a challenging but scenic rolling loop on quiet country roads (*see note) surrounding Catoctin Creek Park and Nature Center in Middletown Md. 5-year age group awards! * Note: Both the 10K and 5K are run on quiet country roads that are open to vehicular traffic on race day.
5K
The 5K option has half the hills of the 10K, so it's not flat by any stretch of the imagination, but if you want to challenge yourself on a shorter course this is a fantastic option. You'll get the same swag and on-course accommodations as the 10Kers do, along with 5-year age group awards! The 5K course is run on quiet country roads that are open to vehicular traffic. The 5K course description: Start at Catoctin Creek Park, turn right onto Sumantown Rd. Climb up Sumantown then stay straight onto Paul Rudy Rd. Follow Paul Rudy Rd. to the "T" intersection at the end then reverse course back to the start/finish. There will be a water stop along the route-the exact location is yet to be determined.
