ScaryAss & Fright in the Forest
Mark your calendars for another fun ScaryAss run and Fright in the Forest! Bring your costumes and friends and compete for pumpkin pie prizes for the winners and best costume!
There are three distance options:
• 25k - run to Capitol Peak and back (begins at 9 am)
• 14k (9 miles) - up and around loop (begins at 9 am)
• 4k - Fright in the Forest perfect for kids and someone looking for a taste of trails (begins at 10 am)
The 25k goes up to the peak so be prepared for a relentless climb and then a cruisy downhill through the trees back to Fall Creek Day Use area! The 14k will cut out the climb to the peak and be a lovely single-track loop. The 4k is on some mountain bike trails with "whoop de whoops" for added fun.
This low-key race does not have aid so bring what you need for water and fuel. The courses will be marked.
After your run enjoy some Witches brew, soup, a candy bag, a warm fire, and good company. You can check out the courses on our Scaryass page on the Olytrailrunner website.
Fall Creek Day Use Area
The race starts and finishes at the Fall Creek Day Use Area. You'll head into Capitol Forest from Sherman Valley Road and drive along several miles of gravel logging roads. You'll be fine in a sudan vehicle (think Prius) but you'll just have to slow down a bit.
The campground should have space available to camp or you can sleep in the large parking lot.
