Net Downhill Race?

[UGAFan0829]

I signed up for a half today that lists the course as "net downhill". I've never seen this before and wondered exactly what it means!

It means that the finish line is at a lower elevation than the starting line. There maybe uphill and down hill section on the course but the "net" is down hill.
