Opening remarks and safety briefing will be at 7:30am near the Start/Finish line. We have merch! Online only, for a small cost, River Valley Marshal socks are available until sold out; T-Shirts are available for a small cost to race participants. Order your competitive race shirt early to have a better chance to receive it at the race. If, not worries, we will have it to you at the next race, NW Championship, Devils Den on September 19th. NICA student athletes who register before July 1st can receive a 10% discount on registration using code SC-26-NICA Cheeseburgers, chips, water, and Coca-Cola ® products will be provided to participants at no charge. Any extra food will be made available, for a small donation, once all participants have had a chance to eat. The 10 and Under course will be 2 laps on a 1.4 mile inside course loop close to the Pit Zone so you can cheer them on.The 11-14 year old racers may recognize the old ARNICA racecourse with a little added to make it 4.4 miles long.For the rest of the racers, the full course of 6.44 miles will be used. Some returning veterans to the SH Classic will recall the course being 9+ miles, however as you will soon find out, there is a new bridge being constructed over the Arkansas River which cut off about 2 miles of the trail system.
