About the New Year 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Richmond, KY (02)
The courses here are out-and-back loops on the same stretch of road, repeated until you hit your distance. That means you share the course with runners doing other distances, and you pass the turnaround point several times. The terrain is not described, but the repetitive structure makes pacing straightforward once you know the route.
Packet pickup opens shortly before the start and closes just before the gun, so plan to arrive with time to spare. There is no on-site registration, so you need to be signed up in advance.
