Course Information (This course is different than the Windermere XC Invitational)
The course will begin and conclude in close proximity to the sand volleyball courts, midway between the Dixie Lake parking area and RV campground. The course takes place on the equestrian trails on the park's south boundary. Runners will encounter gentle rolling grassy trails and groves of tall pines. Evidence of the park's former orange grove existence is present throughout. It is a spectacular and scenic route. This year's course has more opportunity for spectator viewing. The course has been wheeled several times to ensure the 5000 meter distance.
