Quick Facts

The 50 Mile has 7,500 ft ish of climbing and 16 hour cutoff The 50k has 5,000 ft of climbing and 11 hour cutoff The 25k has 2,300 ft of gain and 6 hour cutoff The 8 mile has 1,200 ft gain and 4 hour cutoff As with all of our mountain/ultra/trail races, we like to say that the distances are "ish". Everyone's GPS reads differently, and our mapping software might be slightly different than what you actually run. That's just part of the fun of trail running. The goal of the event is to experience the incredible scenic beauty and not to hit an exact distance.
