Event logistics note a park entry fee of ten dollars per vehicle. For 2027, 9K and 5K participants are required to park at Mountain View Church and use event shuttles into the park; shuttle riders will not need to pay the park entry fee. 17K runners are encouraged to use the church parking as well. Parking attendants and shuttle service operate to manage access.
Aid stations are supplied along the courses with water, electrolyte drink, sweet and salty snacks, and fruit at intervals commonly between about 2 and 5 miles depending on the distance. This is a cupless event so participants should bring a reusable cup or obtain one on site. Drop bags are available at the start finish for 50K and 26K runners. Crews are allowed only at the start finish area and pacers are not permitted. Medical staff will be based at the start finish headquarters. Chip timing is used and awards are given to the top three male and female finishers at each distance, with finisher awards for all finishers.
