Note: part of the Run Course is a remote uphill trail through fields and woods called the "Two Brothers Trail" You can expect to encounter roots, stones, rock walls, mud, streams and other natural and unnatural impediments. It is rumored thats parts of the trail are haunted by the ghosts of the "Two Brothers" Despite repeated attempts to upgrade the trail, sticks, branches and rocks always seem to return overnight, also dry sections suddlenly become wet even in the driest summer. The race organization will do its best to make the trail as clear as possible but is is suggested you go through this sect of the course quickly and quietly not to disturb the "Two Brothers"......
