The Course
To date, the course is the same as year. The Half Marathon begins in Anderson Park in Vernonia, and proceeds directly
to the Vernonia-Banks State Trail. The course runs along the Vernonia Banks State Trail, (paved and gravel trails
through scenic woods on an abandoned railroad bed). The course is generally flat, with some rolling hills. The
trail crosses several roads, but is otherwise closed to traffic. Aid stations and traffic control will be provided.
Participants will put a change of clothes in bags that will be available at the finish area. Participants will
be bussed from the finish back to Vernonia for the awards ceremony. Course maps will be provided.
Awards
The award ceremony will be held at noon. Plaques go to the top three overall male and female winners, and to the
top three overall male and female masters winners. In addition, ribbons will go to the top five finishers in each
five year age group. There is no separate walk category, so those walking will be competing with runners. Food,
beverages, and a raffle will be provided after the race.
