Course Details
A feature of most courses is running across the Waddell Dam. The exception is the 2-mile distance, which remains on the shoreline. Routes utilize rugged, single-track desert trails with views of the lake, Saguaro cacti, and potential sightings of wild burros. The 40K course, nicknamed "Dam Insane," includes a point called Yavapai Point and involves a short, guided raft ride across a cove with life vests provided.
Aid stations are located every 1.5 to 5.4 miles, offering water, an electrolyte drink, and snacks. The event is cupless, so runners are asked to bring their own reusable cup or can purchase one on-site. The overall time limit for all distances is 3:00 PM.
Amenities and Features
The event includes a gender-specific race shirt, chip timing, and a finisher award. Post-race amenities include food such as bagels and fruit. There is a charity beer garden sponsored by a local brewery. An award ceremony is held for a trail series. Parking is available at the start/finish area for a park entry fee.
