Running
10k
The race starts with a cross country feel - line up in the grass and race to hit the bike path before the crowd. A short incline up the hill, then flat for the first mile. Another small incline then a nice descent towards the water, past stone walls, rolling farms and quaint homes. Take a turn through scenic Touisset Point before heading back the way you came, finishing on the bike path near the Warren Little League field.
