Historical Notes: We've been running at Mill Pond for about 25 years now! The course has been modified slightly over the years and in 1998 we made some changes that required us to start a new "top ten" sheet for the course. This is a place of pride for the Hornets and a place of fear for competitors. No one can handle the hills like we can. Take advantage of that fact...

The Course...
This is our HOME course! We are proud to say that it is one of the toughest courses in the state. The first mile is fast and flat along the Mill Pond. The second mile offers a trek up the Tobabggan hill (about 45° incline) and a run on the "island". The last mile is a partial repeat of the first with a trek up the KIller Hill and a kick back into the finish. This is OUR course and we are proud to run on it!
