The Ode Trail Loop Start

On-site runners can win entry into an Ode to Laz Backyard Ultra race of their choice!!!

Options, Options, Options - It's all about enjoying the day!
Pick your favorite distance or run as much as you'd like, up to 8 hours on the famous Ode to Laz trail loop, starting at 9:20 am then each hour, "Backyard Style". You can also start the shorter distances in wave 2 at 2:20 pm if you're not an early riser!  
Run continuously if you like that better, as far as you can in 8 hours.  

If you want to try the "Backyard" format, and then switch to continuous, feel free.
This is a great way to simulate the Ode to Laz as a tune-up or just experience any distance you choose at your own pace on the great Ode course! The last lap time is coordinated with the dusk conditions you will experience on the last day trail lap at the July Ode to Laz race. There is no chip timing.
