We will run through the battlefield during the middle of the night and on into the wee hours of the morning. Smithsburg High cross country coach Ray Shriver has been great at working with us on this portion of the course.įrom Smithsburg you will run through Boonsboro and Keedysville and then to the Price Farm at the end of leg 17 where Wendy Price and her family will greet you in the middle of the night with fun stuff! You’ll arrive at night in Antietam Battlefield. Leg 12 will end at Smithsburg High School. It will be getting dark as many runners cross the famed Mason-Dixon line from the old north into the old south. Our Gettysburg/Fairfield running buddy, Nancy Petrosky, has her fingerprints all over this fantastic part of the course. We will cross a beautiful covered bridge, climb a monster hill (leg 6), run the dirt roads in Michaux State Forest (twice) and slowly begin to make our way toward MD.
