The course is a 10 mile out and back loop through the Ozarks on packed gravel with rolling hills and tree cover. There are two aid stations: a fully stocked station at the start and finish and a minimally stocked turnaround station. Both stations provide water, Gatorade, typical aid station food, and bathrooms. Turnarounds are clearly marked. Loop counts vary by distance, for example the 100 Mile requires ten loops and the 50K three loops.

Packet pickup is scheduled for Friday, August 14, with race day pickup available by arrangement. A free pasta dinner is offered the evening before and RSVPs are requested. Pacers are allowed for the 100 Mile and 100K after mile 50, with a specified pickup point for 100K pacers; pacers must check in. Registration includes a tri blend race shirt. On site camping is allowed, crew and family may set up at the main aid station, and well behaved pets are welcome. A Refund Guarantee option is available through a third party to cover individual inability to participate; it does not cover event cancellations.
