Course Description
99% trail and fire road, and 1% road.
There is no other race like this. You will have absolutely beautiful views for all the miles. Stunning sunrises and sunsets. Breath taking views of the Channel Islands. Come join us out here along the Central Coast of California for a great challenge, that is definitely not easy, but you can get plenty of running in.
You will have approximately 25,000 feet of elevation climbing for 102 miles, the 100km has 16,500 feet of climbing, and the 50km has 8,291 feet of climbing. What can I say, we like it stout. Take on the challenge for a one of a kind buckle for the 100 mile, or a Bronze challenge coin for the 100km and 50km.
