The course.

Every race starts at Fourth and Fulton Streets in downtown Troy and finishes on River Street at Monument Square. The 10K begins with a short out-and-back over the Green Island Bridge, then follows its traditional out-and-back route to a turnaround at 111th Street in Lansingburgh, with water at miles 2.1, 3.5 and 4.8. The 5K has a water station at its turnaround, about 1.5 miles in. Both courses are USATF certified. Headphones, strollers and pets are not allowed in the 5K, 10K or Grade School Mile; strollers are welcome in the Turkey Walk.
