I’ve been doing a little fieldwork on the courses recently and I’m happy to announce that there will be a few nice scenic spots for you to enjoy.* The picture below is one of them. You don’t often find a vista of 5-10 miles like this in central NC. (Sorry Sport class, but this particular vista will only be an option for the 8 and 12 hour teams. You’ll have other vistas to enjoy!)

* The “enjoy” part is highly dependent on how much training you did prior to the race, how much wind you’re sucking at the time, the weather conditions, whether you’re able to talk your teammates into punching the CP in your passport, and whether your team even chooses to search for this CP.
