The course is a 5 mile loop starting and finishing at the park, running along the Ohio Erie Canal Towpath to Butterbridge Road and returning on the Olde Muskingum Trail. Surfaces are packed crushed limestone except for a short section through the camping area on cut grass. Road shoes are suitable.
There is one main aid station at the park pavilion with food options and later hot food. Water is available along the course at about mile 1, mile 2.5 and mile 4. The race is cupless; runners must carry a reusable cup. Cups are provided for coffee and warm soup or broth.
Pacers may join after a runner’s second loop; only one pacer at a time and pacers may use aid station food and drink. Crew may set up within the park but may not take aid station food. Relay teams swap timing bands only at a designated start finish spot; teams aim for 100 miles in 24 hours to receive medals but may continue to see how far they go.
Camping across the park is available free; RV space is limited. Finishing medals and buckles are presented on completion of each chosen distance. No age group awards are given; there is a special recognition in place of age group awards for military veterans and current service members. No refunds are offered, but deferrals with full credit to the following year are allowed up to three weeks before the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
