COURSE & MAP

“Beautiful but challenging.” 

The 2012 course will remain basically the same as the course for the previous 4 years. We may incorporate a new side trail on the descent to keep things interesting. The course travels along the scenic vistas and soft carriage trails in the National Park, over a pine needle path through a stand of red spruce trees with views to Mount Ascutney, a loop around the Pogue (14 acre pond) and a run to the south peak of Mount Tom overlooking historic Woodstock Village. 

The 1.8 mile gentle downhill to the finish is popular among the runners.  The finish area is in a pasture behind the Rockefeller mansion and is accessible to families and friends hoping to share in the experience of the race. 

The point-to-point course means we will be bussing runners to the start from the parking area and taking their clothes back to the finish. We don’t mind, hope you don’t.
