Courses and event rules

There are two route options and mixed terrain of forest roads and trails. Some sections on the Seat How route are narrower and steeper, so only one dog per runner is allowed on that course and dogs must be run in a suitable harness. Harnesses are available to borrow from Non Stop Dog Wear. Runners may compete without dogs. There are no cut-offs and walking is permitted. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

  • 8K (5 mile) - about 360m ascent, reaches the summit of Seat How.
  • 5K (3 mile) - about 240m ascent, avoids Seat How and joins the second half.
