Course and logistics

All distances except the 2-mile cross the New Waddell Dam early in the course. The 40K uses newly constructed shoreline trails, includes an out-and-back to Yavapai Point, and requires two short crossings of Pipeline Cove that use a guided raft with life vests or a PFD swim option. Trails are single track with climbs, rocky sections, and desert vegetation; some segments offer lake views and wildlife sightings.

Aid stations are placed about every 1.6 to 5.4 miles with water, electrolyte drink, snacks, and fruit. Agua Fria and Scorpion are lighter aid stations; Two Cow and Cottonwood are full aid stations. Runners are advised to carry at least 40 ounces of fluids. Crews are allowed at the start and finish only, no pacers are permitted, and there are no remote drop bag locations. Overall race cutoff is 3:00 PM, and 40K runners must depart Cottonwood aid by 12:00 PM. The event is cupless; reusable cups will be available at registration and on race day. Parking is available at the 10 Lane Boat Ramp. Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers at each distance and all finishers receive a finisher award.
