Course, format, aid and crew
The course is a 4.13-mile loop with about 103 feet of elevation gain. Runners depart together every hour and must complete each loop within 60 minutes to remain in the race. The route runs alongside the Columbia River, passes into forested areas near the Bonneville Dam, crosses a road about halfway, includes one hill of roughly 30 feet, and returns to the start/finish parking area. One aid station at the start/finish area is stocked with water, electrolyte drink, gels, sandwiches, snacks, fruit, candy, and hot broth and hot food during the night. Crew is optional; crew may set up in designated parking areas but cannot access runners while they are on the course. All participant distances are posted to Ultrasignup; a DNF is recorded only if a runner fails to complete the first lap. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
