I bought a wheel at Home Depot last weekend and went and measured the MGP course today. It had been measured once before, about 10 years ago but I wanted to verify the distances. My distances were close just a tad bit longer. I will calll these the official distances now. 6.76 overall length. Here are the measurements.
Measured 11-21 Nathan & Connor Hult | Measured ~2000 Sid, Scott, and Cooper | ||
Miles | Feet | Miles | |
Start Wallace Park | 0 | 0 | |
Thurman Bridge Stairs | 0.48 | 2,510 | 0.47 |
Wildwood Trail Turn (Stone Hut) | 1.34 | 7,064 | 1.32 |
Wildwood - Holman Lane | 1.76 | 9,311 | 1.74 |
Wildwood - Aspen Trail | 2.20 | 11,591 | 2.16 |
Oak Tree at King of Mtn | 2.96 | 15,651 | |
Wildwood - Birch Trail | 3.33 | 17,556 | 3.27 |
Wildwood - Cherry | 3.70 | 19,554 | 3.65 |
Wildwood- Dogwood | 4.30 | 22,684 | 4.24 |
End of Lief | 5.53 | 29,181 | 5.46 |
Finish | 6.76 | 35,670 | 6.69 |
I was a little skeptical in the accuracy of the wheel so I went to a local track and measured 12 laps (while running) and had average measurement within one foot so it passed my test.
My son ran the course with me today. He plans to run the MGP for the first time in the December 22nd. I am hoping someone might run with him, I think he will be close to breaking 1 hour. He runs slow up hills but fast down.
