| Race Terrain | |
The course is a mix of dirt, rock, and mulch and features rolling terrain with the exception of what we are calling "Holy Hill" (as in holy cow that's a BIG hill)! Most of the race is on a disc golf course so bring your frisbee! | We didn't call this race bruises and bandages for nothing! The first and last mile is on hilly, technical terrain with a lot of single track and skull rock. The "middle mile" is along the shore of Lake Georgetown on a gently rolling wide jeep road. | Meadows and fields describe this course. Set just north of Buda, it follows Onion Creek (don't worry - no creek crossing) on a fairly flat course with a few rolling hills and many twists and turns on mostly double-track trail and jeep road. | ||
