Racers will line up facing upstream, in-line with the Schmidt boat ramp and a buoy. The course goes 0.2 miles upriver to a buoy. Take a 180 degree right turn at the buoy. Paddle under 7 bridges. The finish line is at Gilday Riverside Park on the Ohio (right hand) side of the river. Pass through the floating inflatable arch finish line next to the dock. Your timing chip will be read as you pass under the arch.
