Each 10 Mile loop is a figure eight with three lollipop loops, which will be clearly marked with streamers and arrows at intersections.
The 20 Mile course covers the 10 Mile loop twice, the 50 km course covers the 10 Mile loop three times and does the devils butte loop (or...ange arrows) twice on the last loop giving the course the exact 50 km distance.
This run is a favorite of trail runners and is usually only held in March, so we decided to put it on in the summer as well when the wildflowers are in full bloom. The courses will be well marked with streamers and arrows at intersections. About 1/3 of the course is fire road and 2/3 is single track.
Please note that the start of the race will be at the south parking lot of the park. There will be fully stocked aid station about every 5 Miles, giving runners plenty of fuel for the course. We will have water, nuun, Clif product, PBJ sandwiches, organic fruit, cookies, crackers and pretzels. As always, at the finish there will be pizza, chocolate and organic vegetable soup, plus other goodies after the race read more
