Veterans Memorial 150
This is a self-supported, point-to-point 150-mile run across Michigan beginning at the Lake Michigan beach in Ludington and finishing at Veterans Memorial Park in Bay City. The route uses open roads and about 90 miles of rail trail. Participants are expected to travel with a crew for support.
Distances:
- 150 miles
- 100 miles
Participants and their crews are responsible for safety on open roads. All roads on course remain open to traffic; runners must wear lights visible to traffic when it is dark, such as NoxGear or an equivalent. Crews may access runners where it is safe but may not pace from a vehicle; vehicles must stop in a parking lot, trail head, or another safe location away from traffic to provide aid.
There will be a small volunteer presence along the course to provide supplementary water and occasional snacks, but this should not be relied on as primary support. A breakfast will be available at the Clare Trail Head near the Moose Lodge on M-115, which is located at the 100-mile point; timing depends on each participant’s arrival. Pacers may join runners at the Baldwin Trail Head and must register as pacers on Ultrasignup to complete the waiver; pacer registration is free.
Course maps and additional course information will be posted soon. The event includes a 52-hour overall limit and a 32-hour cutoff at the 100-mile mark. Finishers receive a belt buckle; those who withdraw also receive a prize. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
