Participants will record the greatest distance possible during their chosen duration. Only fully complete course loops will count towards your distance. This is a trail run and portions of the course can be quite technical. The start will be at the Mack Dick Pavilion and the course will be the 4 mile Kiowa/Comanche Loop.

Aid Station Info
There will be one aid station at the S/F and you may set up your own canopies or tents. Our aid station will be stocked with the usual water, Hyperlyte Liquid Performance drink mix, coke, ginger ale, pickle juice, gels, and an assortment of sweet and salty snacks. This is a cupless race so please bring your own bottle, bladder, or cup
Cutoffs
Only fully completed laps count toward your race distance and the final lap must be completed BEFORE the race finish per the above schedule, based on the event in which you are registered. Therefore, it is at your discretion if you begin a 4 mile loop that you know you may not be able to complete before your race ends. There will be an absolute cutoff 30 minutes prior to the end of each race (9:30 am for the 3 hour, 12:30 pm for the 6 hour), after which no runner will be allowed to begin another loop.
