Please note additions to the Classic Race Map

 
1) Turning Zones: there will be 7 marked Turning Zones in the race. These will be marked by signs on the course (Begin and End). There will be no tracks in these sections and Turning Technique (Step turns) are allowed. Hopefully these will be the only sections on the course (besides major public trail crossings like the Common Corridor) where the tracks will be missing.
 
2) Technique Zone: The TZ is short.  It is on the steepest section of Easy Up near the top, and begins where Easy Up turns right.  Only diagonal technique is allowed in this section.
  • YES:
    • Striding
    • Running (Opposite arms & Legs)
    • Herringbone (no glide)
  • NO:
    • Double Pole
    • Double Pole with Kick
    • Herringbone with Glide
Please be sure to read over the rules about diagonal technique and turning and spend some time discussing them with your athletes before State.
