The Sprint Into Spring 5k/10k is a mostly circular course in Middlefield, with the start and finish points near the entrance to Peckham Park. There is a moderate hill near the 1 mile mark with about a 5% gradient (not too bad), otherwise the level changes are relatively minor. The only less ideal feature is an in-out spur near the 2.5 mile mark along High Meadow Lane that requires a sharp turn-around. Those doing the 10k race will do the course twice, which will present fans and spectators to get plenty of photos in the middle the race. Looks like it will be a good race.

Marc,
Thanks for the course description and map! I always like to know a bit about the course before I run it.
