Course and logistics
The course is a 25-mile loop on technical, rolling trails. Marathon runners run an additional 1.2 miles on the Nature Center Trail before starting the 25-mile loop. Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three additional times, 75-milers two additional times, and 50-milers one additional time. Runners should follow the white and blue blazes, flags, and signs at trail crossings.
The race operates with four main aid station locations on the loop and provides crew access and drop-bag rules as follows: Lands End (about 4.5 and 18.5 miles) - no crew access, drop bags allowed; West Park Road (about 10.5 and 13 miles) - crew access and drop bags; Start/Finish (25 miles) - crew access and drop bags. The race supplies Tailwind and Honey Stinger products and usually offers mixed dietary options, including hot food overnight.
Pre-race briefing and packet pickup occur the morning of the event. Drop bags must be delivered on race morning shortly before each distance start. The race does not offer refunds; transfers and deferrals are allowed under specified deadlines. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
