Course and logistics
The course is a 1 mile loop made primarily of a six-foot-wide crushed limestone path with a small section over grass. The route is split roughly 50/50 between tree cover and open areas. One aid station is located at the start/finish of each loop and will offer standard aid station items plus soups, broths, and other warm options during the night. The event is cup-less, so participants should bring a refillable container. Crews may set up pop-up tents and chairs in designated areas near the loop completion. Dogs are allowed in the parking lot only and are not permitted on the course. Pacers are not allowed.
Timing, rules and prizes
Chip timing is used and the race bib contains the timing chip; the bib should be worn visibly on the front and not altered. Runners must cross the timing mat at the start of their event’s first lap and remove their bib after finishing to avoid additional laps counting. Runners under 18 must have a parent or guardian present or running at all times. Registered participants receive a long sleeve tech shirt if registered before October 23, 2026, a belt buckle finisher award, distance-specific magnetic banners for certain distances, and awards for top three finishers in each event. A doubler award is offered for completing both the KUS and the Heat Wave events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
