- 26K - 4 laps
A headlamp or running light is required for the night run. The event lists the Amphipod Versa-Light Max USB as the official headlamp but notes that any headlamp may be worn. Check-in is at the Start/Finish area just south of the trail entrance at the Boat Launch area. Parking is available at the Galena Boat Ramp off Africa Road; parking must be in designated areas and not on grass or along the road.
