QSER Course Preview Runs
To help prepare you for a successful race, we are again setting up series of group runs to preview the course. These are fairly informal affairs, geared more towards familiarizing you with the trails and stopping for photos than towards setting CRs on Strava. We have broken up the runs into three separate courses, covering most of the 100K race. We considered previewing the entire race course, but we thought that we’d keep a little something as a surprise for race day. The three different course previews are as follows:
