About this race

It is linked to the established Delta Blues and the Mississippi Freedom Trails. The Marks Mules & Blues Festival showcases  the north delta region's historical treasures, artistic talents - music, art, literature - and our southern style culinary skills.

The course is relatively flat with one or two hills.
