The Race
The Third annual Fisher Farm Ultra Trail. Fisher Farm and its companion parks at Allison Farm and Abersham are a hidden gem in north Mecklenberg County. There are about 15 miles of runnable trails and 4 miles of paved greenway. New for this year is a 25k course that's nearly all singletrack. Run the loop twice to complete the Jansen Classic 50k, or once for the Somewhat Legendary 25k.
The trails are tricky, with lots of twists, turns, roots, and rocks to keep you on your toes. But if you keep a steady pace you can run the whole thing.
The Challenge
It wouldn't be a DART race without a challenge. We think this is a tough course, so we want to reward participants who crush it. If the top male finisher in the 50k breaks 4.5 hours, he wins a special prize. Top female under 5 hours also wins the prize. We think this is tough enough that no one might get it. If that's the case, we'll just add an EXTRA prize the next year until someone beats the challenge time, and that time will now be the NEW challenge time for future races! Currently the women are up for TRIPLE prizes and the men are up for a double prize!
