The 5k course is the cross country course for the Friends School. It starts in the athletic fields and runs through a wooded section of the campus. It does not enter any roads and there is no local traffic on the course. The wooded section is gently rolling but does not include any significant climbs.
The 10 course is generally 2 laps but the second lap includes an additional section running through open farm fields. The races start together and split at the 10k halfway point.
The event site has maps of the courses.
