The out and back course begins in Downtown Cuyahoga Falls. The 100 mile run and relay follow the scenic Cuyahoga River Valley Corridor to the halfway point at Silver Springs Park in Stow before turning around and heading back to Cuyahoga Falls. The Front 50 mile distance option begins in Cuyahoga Falls and finishes at Silver Springs. The Back 50 mile race begins at Silver Springs and finishes in Cuyahoga Falls.
