The Format
Runners will complete repeated laps of a clearly marked ~3.1-mile trail loop, returning each lap to a centralized Start/Finish and fully stocked aid station.
No complicated logistics. No point-to-point stress.
Just steady forward progress—one loop at a time.

Why This Event Works
Frequent aid access every loop
Centralized staging for crew and gear
Simple, repeatable course
Ideal for first-time ultras and experienced runners alike
You control your pace, your strategy, and your race.

The Course
The Coachwhip Trail system offers a mix of runnable terrain, rolling elevation, and well-defined trail, creating a course that is approachable early and challenging over distance.

The Experience
This is where endurance meets strategy.
Run through the heat of the day…
Push into the night…
Reset at the hub…
Then go back out for one more loop.

Field Limit
30 runners total each event.
Small field. Better support. More personal experience.

No DNF Mindset. Every loop counts. Go as far as you can.
Your Endurance. No Limits. One More Loop.
