First off this is a cupless race. If you want something to drink you need to bring a bottle or two (one per aid station). One aid station has food and drinks (so many choices...candy, chips, cookies, soups, brownies, hot food, water, soda, and other hydration) and the other I saw water).
Each loop is 3 miles. Since it was pouring everything turned into mud. The course starts off on grass (mud), you run onto a field (mud), you cross water (more mud), and hit a single trail (surprise more mud), at this point you a climbing up. The single track goes up and down until about mile 1.6-1.7. You end up on gravel (kind of muddy). This turns back into single track-to grass-to single track-to gravel and grass (all very muddy). You arrive back at the timing mats ready for another loop.
There are port-a-potties and a "real" bathroom (that is what a sign said).
If you love a challenge, mud, water crossing, roots, rocks, gravel, grass, elevation, fun people, and a good time than this is your race.
Just remember to wear trail shoes and a great pair of socks.
