Fair Hill offers a relatively gentle running experience compared to other mid-Atlantic parks, featuring gentle rolling hills and moderate climbs that max out at 150 feet. The racecourse consists of a single loop, starting and finishing on roughly 1 mile of asphalt and gravel, complemented by an additional mile of grassy pastures. The majority, around 12.5 miles, consists of winding single-track paths that may leave runners feeling delightfully "lost" throughout the journey. For those familiar with past events, the new 25K course incorporates sections from the previous PHUNT race, maintaining a familiar yet fresh challenge. Runners can expect a mix of terrain and a beautiful natural setting that promises both adventure and enjoyment, perfect for those ready to tackle the distance.
