KUS 6/12/24 Hour Run
The event offers multi-hour running options held at the Wolverine Sports Complex in Marquette KS, located at 310 Harold St. The course is a one mile loop made mostly of a six foot wide crushed limestone path with a short section over grass. The route is split roughly half under trees and half in the open.
There is one aid station at the start and finish of every loop. The aid station provides standard fare plus soups, broths, and warm options during the night. The event is cupless so participants should bring a refillable container. Space is available for shared items and runners or crews may set up pop up tents and chairs near the start finish area.
Chip timing is used and the race bib contains the timing chip on its back. Runners should wear the bib visibly on the front and avoid bending or removing the chip. After finishing, participants are asked to remove the bib and place it inside their vehicle to prevent additional lap counts.
Crews, tents, and canopies are allowed in designated areas near the loop. Dogs are allowed in the parking lot but not on the course. Pacers are not permitted. Runners under 18 must have a parent or guardian running or present at the race at all times.
Finishers receive a belt buckle and distance specific magnetic banners for the buckle are awarded for these distances:
- 50k
- 50 mile
- 100k
- 75 mile
- 100 mile
A long sleeve tech t shirt is provided to participants who register before October 23 2026. Awards are given to the top three in each event and a doubler award is available for those who also complete the Heat Wave event. Registration closes November 6 2026 at 11:59 PM CT.
The event allows walking for lap credit, on site camping in the parking area, and the option to stop before the allotted time if the runner notifies staff. No refunds are offered but entries may be deferred one time. In case of lightning participants will be directed to shelter and the clock will continue running until conditions allow resumption.
