We will start down by Salem Willows and follow Rt. 114 into Marblehead up around the neck and down through historic Salem, Derby Street and back to the Willows to finish. The only big hills are on the Marblehead neck - there are a few other hills on the course but nothing major. There will be plenty of volunteers and police keeping the runners safe.
