We are very fortunate to host the TriSpan 5K/10K in historic downtown Wilmington. However, running through a historic town does present a few issues. The course will contain sections of bridge grating (10K only), boardwalk (5K only) cobblestones, uneven brick, and pavement. Roads will be open to vehicular traffic so please be aware of your surroundings and footing. Additionally, downtown Wilmington is undergoing some construction that largely dictates the racecourse. To accommodate for construction and provide the safest courses possible, the courses are not precisely measured to 5 km and 10 km. (They are very close...but they are not exact)
