Parking Map

Runner dropoff in front of the course on Tugalo Village Road. Security will show where to park buses. Admission and parking is FREE in the gravel parking lot, at the old gallery, along the grass, and at the middle school.

As soon as the 3k race is over, all teams bus to Tallulah Beach. From there six TFS XC team member Gorge Guides will take groups to either the North Rim Trail to Inspiration Point, the South Rim Trail and overlooks, or down the 587 stairs to the bottom overlook from apx 5:15-6:00 and mingle/get to know each other. Runners should return to Tallulah Beach by 6:15 and receive pizza and popsicles. Runners are also welcome to swim inside the yellow beach ropes. Families are welcome!

Special Considerations:

As a precaution, water stations will be set up at the upper corner behind the start line, at top of hill at the Gallery, at the top of the back pasture hill next to the pump house, and at the finish line.

We will also have a ice trough at the Sports Med Tent

Team tents will be spread out in the grass area across the street from the course (see link).
Teams enter through the single red gate; spectators enter through the double red gate.
Warm up area: in front of and behind the tent area all the way down the grass fields on the same side (watch out for the beehives of the way down!).

If chips are used, after finishing, coaches take chips off runners and return to TIMING COMPANY! Every chip not turned in results in a fee from the timing company.
The 1 mile mark is about 100 yds up the path on the back pasture. A clock will be there.
Teams should also have their own water and ice!
Concessions - drinks and snacks - will be sold.
Please let parents and fans know that pets are not allowed in the Cross Country facility.

Awards - Top 10 receive a mini banner. No team awards for this meet. 3k Course map link:
