The Sprint event at Lake Johnson will have two courses, each approximately 2k long.

Both courses will be on the Western side of the park (West of Avent Ferry Rd). The start and finish are both off the trail close to the road. If the parking lot South of the lake is full, consider parking in the main (Northern) parking lot, take the short walk over the wooden bridge, and then (carefully) cross Avent Ferry Rd.

For information about the venue, see our directions page.

Courses open at noon. Plan to be back by 3PM and consider helping with control pickup. Please pre-register by Friday night, so we know how many maps to print.
