Last One Standing at Bradley

Last One Standing at Bradley, California

Last One Standing at Smith Ranch in Bradley, California is an elimination loop race run on a marked 4.18 mile course over dirt trails and ranch roads. Participants run the same loop every hour; to continue they must finish each loop within the hour and be in the start corral at the next hour. Pace does not determine placement, only timely completion of each loop.

Course details note 100 percent dirt surface, marked with green surveyors tape, and gross elevation change of about 332 feet up and down. Runners must carry their own on-course aid such as water and snacks because there are no aid stations on course. One staffed aid station is available for the duration of the event offering water, ice, fruit, chicken soup, grilled cheese sandwiches, quesadillas, and Hammer Nutrition products.

Rules allow a small crew of two to set up in the designated pit stop area. No non-competitors may be on course and no artificial aids including trekking poles are allowed. Assigned bibs must be worn visibly on the front of the body. The event policy states no refunds, no transfers, and no deferrals. Camp fees apply per vehicle on arrival, and amenities include portable restrooms, large flat camp areas, a community oak BBQ pit, nightly group campfire, and music.

Prizes and participant items include a custom western style trophy buckle for the last runner standing, handcrafted Kukini amulets for all runners, event stickers, and a custom event t-shirt. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
