Course and race details

All courses run on technical trails through old-growth forest and include steep climbs, runnable single track, and technical descents. The 5K is almost entirely on trail. The 10K includes a flatter, faster section on the Wetlands trail that passes fields and streams while also featuring three steep climbs and technical descents. The 50K is five loops of the 10K course, totaling over 7,000 feet of elevation gain.

The 50K has a fully stocked aid station at the start of each loop (about every 6.5 miles); additional fueling must be carried by runners. Pacers are not allowed; hiking poles are permitted. Drop bags may be left at the aid station area. The 50K enforces strict timing cutoffs for the final lap and overall course.

All races will be chip timed by Falcon Race Timing. Deadline to order a race shirt is Tuesday, August 11, 2026. Post-race food and beverages will be provided. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
