Race Course and Information
Both races start and finish at the Freestyle Farm equestrian center. The 6K trail race starts in an open field and connects to the 4-kilometer-long Denning Loop which has many demanding changes in elevation, side slopes, stream crossings, and boulder traverses. Trail shoes are recommended. The 5K XC steeple chase course is run on grass and dirt equestrian trials with excellent footing. The 5K consists of 4 laps on the steeple chase loop. Each lap contains twelve 32 inch barriers and a water hazard. Most of the terrain is gently sloping with a series of short hills. XC racing shoes or XC spikes are strongly recommended for the steeple chase. Freestyle Farm is a private equestrian facility that is not open to the general public.
