The 100 mile course is described as two 10 mile loops run in a figure-8 with an aid station on route and an additional final mile to complete the distance. The Middle Mosquito 50 mile option uses three loops: approximately 5 miles (about 330 ft gain), 7 miles (about 880 ft gain), and 4.7 miles (about 200 ft gain). Relay teams run laps relay-style with one runner on course while teammates remain at the start/finish area.
All relay teams must provide one volunteer for event duties. Event proceeds benefit the Blue Foundation, a charity in Canandaigua, NY. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
