Course and logistics
The course is paved with rolling terrain and begins at an elevation of roughly 4,500 feet. It runs through Lovell Canyon and features high desert vegetation such as Joshua trees, pinion-juniper, mountain rose, and sagebrush, within the Toiyabe National Forest and Spring Mountains National Recreation Area. The start/finish area is at the Lovell Canyon Road and Highway 160 junction, about a 30-minute drive from the Las Vegas Strip. Organizers note daytime temperatures can be high and that on-course provisions will be available. The event is held under a special use permit from the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest.
For the two iterations of the 5K and 10K, age group awards apply only to the first iteration. The second iteration awards are limited to the top three overall male and female finishers and one male and female grand master (50+) per distance.
