The race will be a wave start, with each wave starting ON STEEL FORCE! How awesome is that?!
Groups will load the coaster - take a ride and then head off on the 5K course around the park and surrounding area. Groups of 36 riders will take off each for each wave, so all riders/runners must be at least 48" tall. Too short or too nervous to ride Steel Force? That is ok too - just register as a non-rider and we will do a separate wave start for those who do not ride the coaster.
The course will start on Steel Force and travel in and around Dorney Park. It will be a rolling course on both pavement and some gravel.
