**While this is a mass participation sport, runners should be prepared for the distance of the run. They should be able to mostly run the course without too much discomfort. Of course, we know students come to us with a variety of abilities and exposure to endurance activities. While we encourage participation by all students, we want to make sure this is a positive experience, one they will want to return to.
Most of the course is uneven terrain with hills**
