Hotfoot Hamster
Hotfoot Hamster is a fixed-time trail running event held at Nardini Manor in Buckeye, Arizona. The event uses a USATF certified 500 meter flat crushed gravel loop on the manor grounds and offers timed formats over multiple durations.
Available distances include:
- 24 Hour
- 12 Hour
- 6 Hour
The loop is described as flat with minimal elevation gain per loop and is used for repeated laps. A main aid station is located directly on course with an express water fill station nearby. The event operates as cupless; runners are expected to carry a bottle or reusable cup for refills. Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten sensitive options are available at the aid station, and runners are advised to coordinate specific dietary needs with aid staff. Portable restrooms will be placed along the course and permanent restrooms are available on site.
Crew may set up in designated areas close to the timing line and a staging area is provided for drop bags, tables, chairs, and tents. No pacing is allowed. Course lighting covers much of the loop but includes darker stretches at night. Medical personnel from Medstar Solutions will be on site. Live chip timing records splits and top three overall and masters placings are recognized in each timed event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
