Course
The course starts at the shelter, goes by the corner of the play fields, then into the woods, following trails around the north and west side of Osprey Park. The trails take you along bank of the Sultan River, where you may see salmon returning to spawn. Then head back through the woods to the aid station and finish area at the shelter.
There will be an aid station at the shelter with food and drinks. We’ll have water, soda and Nuun electrolyte drink. We’ll have lots of carbs, salty and sweet snacks as well.

Directions
**Osprey Park is located off 1st Street in Sultan. Google Maps mistakenly had directions going to the wrong side of the Sultan River, and you can’t access Osprey Park from there. Make sure whatever you use for directions leads you to 1st Street.**
