Mill Creek Park is a very scenic and picturesque area maintained by the Ohio Metro Parks system. It is the second largest urban park in the USA - only Central Park is larger.  

The current course is 95% single track past large mature trees, past lakes and waterfalls.  It is mixture of short steep hills followed by runnable terrain.

There is approximately 1397 feet of elevation gain per 25K loop.  

The 25K course is one loop around Mill Creek Park.  The 50K course is two loops around Mill Creek Park.  

This is a terrific race for the newcomers to trail running and challenging for the old veteran trail dogs.

YUTC will provide everyone with a truly memorable experience.  You will find yourself stopping and snapping photo after photo to share with friends and family.  

The YUTC Course:

The course begins at the Bresko Pavilion and travels clockwise around the park passing the Mill then traveling through the Covered Bridge to the aid station on the other side.

After leaving the aid station, the course travels counter clock wise around Newport Lake.  The course returns to the Covered Bridge and the aid station. 

After leaving the Covered Bridge aid station for the second time, the course travels clockwise back to the Wick Recreation area - to the finish line/aid station at the Bresko Pavilion.
