About the Delta Dental 5k/10k Nationals Practice Race
The course runs through Canterbury Shaker Village, moving across open fields, past ponds, and into wooded stretches. Hills show up along the way and are not trivial. It is the same ground used for US Snowshoe Nationals, so the terrain has some ambition to it. Expect a mix of surfaces and a route that changes character as it goes.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at Delta Dental, with bib pickup also available race morning at Canterbury Shaker Village before the start. Parking and registration are handled on site at the village.
