The marathon is 2 X 13.1 mile loops, the Half marathon is 1 X 13.1 mile loop, and the 10K is a modified loop.

AID STATIONS: The three aid stations will have water, electrolyte sports drinks, soda, pickles, chips, and PB&J. Even though aid stations are approximately every 5 miles, every participant must carry a handheld, waist pack, or hydration pack.

POST RACE: Every runner who completes any distance will receive a finisher award. The top three males and females from each distance will receive a specially handcrafted award. Once you get your award, grab a camp chair, grab a hot dog, and hang out to cheer on other runners!

Camping:

The Bear Head Hammock Recreational Area has primitive camping sites in the equestrian campground. However, there isn’t a water or power source in the park, so plan accordingly. We have reserved the entire campground and runners are welcome to set up tents, car camp, or RV “boondock” camp using a generator on Saturday. (3 pm - 7 pm)
