NEW COURSE THIS YEAR!  Due to bridge/road construction on Water St, Shortsville, this year's Bound for the Hounds will be held at Finger Lakes Community College (FLCC) in Canandaigua, NY!  The course is a 2 mile loop on the lower trails on the FLCC grounds.  I'd say about 70% is grassy mowed trails, 20% dirt trail, and 10% gravel.  There is very little elevation and only a couple small sections of trippy roots.  I have yet to finalize the course so there's a chance we skip the trippy roots.  I find the course to be road shoe or mild trail shoe friendly.  
Bound for the Hounds 6 Hour Ultra is held to raise funds to support the "free to all" dog park in Shortsville, NY!   Your canine companions are welcome as long as they are well-behaved on a short leash at all times!  The race director and FLCC reserve the right to ask a dog's human to remove their dog from the event if any issues arise.
