THE RULES
To “finish” you must be on the course throughout the event. You cannot leave the park and return later. This is a time-based event with a goal, not a distance event. You must be on course at 7:00pm!
What is the “course”? The course includes the roped off area behind the scoring table (the drop bag location), the marked trail, and the restrooms.
You will need a flashlight or headlamp at the start of the race.
T-SHIRT
To guarantee a t-shirt, all registrants must be registered by August 25, 2023.
You must pick up your race packet to receive your shirt. No shirts will be mailed.
SWEET FINISHER AWARD 1
All finishers that travel upon the course for the full 12 hours will receive our cool finisher medal.
SWEET FINISHER AWARD 2
We are working on a customized SECOND FINISHER AWARD. Details to come.
PLACE AWARDS
We will have awards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers in both the male and female divisions. In case of a tie, the first runner to cross the finish line for their last lap will be awarded the place.
VOLUNTEERS

Additional reminders and info
Pacers will be allowed on course after 11 am.
All pacers will need to sign a waiver.
You must be on course and be moving at the 12-hour mark. This is not a measured distance race, it’s how far can you go in 12 hours.
We will be counting your laps and using a timing system to calculate the distance during the 12 hours.
There is a roped off drop bag area adjacent to the start/finish to change, take a short break, refuel etc. Leaving the course is not permitted.
We have Tailwind Performance drink, water, chips, pretzels, PB&J, and other food items at the start/finish aid station.
Parking is adjacent to the campground, however, DO NOT park in the handicapped lot or in the Subaru lot, unless you are handicapped or driving a Subaru.
Guide dogs or guide runners are welcome to assist visually impaired runners. However, guides and pacers must sign our waiver at the packet pick-up table.
All Race participants should enter from the Harshman Rd. entrance, not Springfield St. Gate may be closed but will not be locked before 6:00 am.
