Overview
This trail event at Killen's Pond State Park near Felton, DE offers three distance options on a roughly 3.10 mile loop contained entirely within the park. The loop is almost all dirt with a short paved/parking loop and an aluminum footbridge. Terrain includes broad dirt sections, a single-track south portion with some roots, occasional rocks or shells, and about 80 feet of climb per loop. The course is low on technical difficulty.

The event is run in a "Fat Ass" style: self-supported with a community table for shared food and drink, no guaranteed aid, no race shirts, and no chip timing. 50K participants self-mark laps; 24 hour and 100 mile entrants have an official lap counter. A covered pavilion provides space for tents and there are heated restrooms in the parking area. A porta-john may be present near the south trail sometimes.
Entries are limited to 40 participants per race. There is no waitlist, no deferrals or transfers, and no refunds for any reason. Fees listed are $20 for the 50K ($23.50 total) and $50 for the 24 hour and 100 mile options ($53.50 total); event fees cover park use and pavilion rental, with any excess donated to the park.
Parking is ample and typically free in winter. The park is a shared public space; participants must pack out all trash. Weather is often cold, especially at the start and overnight, and past conditions have ranged from single digit wind chills to highs near the upper 50s.
