Echo 136
Echo 136 is a trail ultramarathon scheduled for September 24, 2027 in Whitewater, WI, organized by TYDISH Running. The course covers approximately 136 miles along the Ice Age State Trail, beginning at the Rice Lake boat launch and generally heading north through the Southern Unit of the Kettle Moraine State Forest. Organizers note a 55 hour time allowance to complete the route.
The event uses the Ice Age State Trail surfaces, including wide groomed trails, singletrack, bike paths and road connectors. Course elevation is reported as approximately 11,148 feet of gain and 10,961 feet of loss; these values are approximations and may vary by device or mapping source.
Support on course includes nine aid stations that will be stocked with water, soda, ice, an electrolyte drink and a variety of foods. Stations may use tents, buildings, homes or pavilions and will attempt to accommodate common dietary preferences; participants with celiac disease may request separate food storage. The event is cupless and will refill personal vessels rather than provide single use disposable cups.
GPX files will not be provided. The FarOut app with offline maps is required equipment and participants will not be allowed to start without the offline map available for verification. Pacers may join at Aid Station 4 and many subsequent aid stations, subject to age and pickup rules; crew access is restricted at specific aid stations. Participants must be at least 18 to register. Awards are given to the top three men and women and finishers receive a themed, useful item instead of medals or buckles. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
