RUN 1. The route for the 5K run starts in a westerly direction on a concrete walkway through the campus. Shortly after the 1 mile mark, the router turns out to the back campus in a easterly direction. Stay on the path as there may be danger of rattlesnakes in the underbrush. 2. Follow the path around the northern edge of the campus you will turn south until you enter North Park Blvd. Stay in the bike lane on North Park and re-enter the campus at Coyote Drive. Follow this road to the north end of parking lot G. 3. For 5K runners Only: The finish line is to the right of the bike rack area as you are re-entering the campus. 4. For Triathletes: Enter the bike rack area, change into the appropriate riding gear and head west through the campus – the same beginning route as for the 5K run.
BIKE 1. You are to place your bike in the Bike rack area BEFORE the race. 2. Hard helmets are MANDATORY! YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED if you ride without a hard helmet. 3. The bike route follows the same route as the 5K run for the first mile. However, instead of turning towards the back campus as the runners did, go a little further to the intersection, turn right and head towards Devil’s Canyon. 4. You must travel on the same side of the road as regular automobile traffic. Be careful as there is a blind at the top of the hill. Watch your speed coming down the hill. 5. Avoid drafting – Absolutely NO car drafting! 6. Traffic will be stopped at intersections upon your APPROACH only, so please be cautious of side streets. 7. After circling around Devil’s Canyon, you will re-enter the campus between lots B and C Use caution both because of the sharp right- angle turns, and speed bumps on campus. 8. Stay on the northern edge of parking lot C. You will zigzag back onto the sidewalk portion just prior to the dormitories. 9. Continue east back towards Coyote Drive. Stay to the right as slower participants may just be starting out on their bikes. 10.
