Fields are limited to 50 participants. Finishers who complete 45 loops within the 30 hour window receive a finisher buckle at no extra charge. Overall race winners are determined by most miles completed in the 30 hour period; achieving 100 miles earns the 100 mile buckle but does not automatically determine the race winner.
The event provides a single central aid station at the pavilion with hydration and food options including sandwiches, pizza, potatoes and non alcoholic beer from a sponsor. Runners with specific dietary needs are advised to bring personal fuel. Race entry includes swag and additional items are available for purchase in limited quantities.
Pacer options are available for a fee: a 12 hour option and a 6 hour option. Only one pacer may accompany a runner at a time; pacers must register, sign a waiver and check in for a pacer wristband. Use of an unauthorized pacer results in disqualification.
Registration is final with no refunds, transfers or deferrals. Entrants must be at least 18 years old or have a parental or guardian signed waiver. Per town ordinance, overnight camping on Friday night is not allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
