About This Event

5K, 10 Mile, 20 Mile and 50K

All races are chip timed.  The 10 Miler runs a mostly single track loop through shady pine forest. The surface is sandy loam soil and the course profile is relatively flat. There are 4 fully stocked aid stations along this loop with sports drink and water.  20 Miler is 2 loops and the 50K will be 3 loops at the most and may be 2 loops if the trails we plan to use are ready for use. The 5K starts at the same time as the 10 Mile event, but turns off the 10 Mile course to complete a smaller loop.

All runners receive a tech shirt, custom finisher medal and post race party with refreshments, craft beer on tap and selection from Mingo’s Latin Cuisine food truck menu (veggie option available).
