The run will be held on April 1 beginning at 8:30 a.m. with check-in and packet pick-up at 6:30 a.m.

“Last year, we had about 150 register,” said race director Benny Madrigal. “The day of, we had close to that show up. We would like to have more runners. The course will be modified to accommodate a bigger group. We’re expecting more and planning for more.”
