Course, logistics and awards
The course covers forest single-track, dirt roads, and some paved sections across a 5,000-acre state forest. Aid stations are located about every 5 miles and stock drinks, snacks, soups, sandwiches, fruits, gels, and electrolyte products. Drop bags are allowed for 50- and 100-mile runners only at Covered Bridge (C) and Mohican Adventures (E). The 100-mile race has a final cutoff of 32 hours; aid stations remain open to support the 100-mile event. The course is marked with reflective signs, arrows, and flags, but runners may still go off course in low visibility. Lights are required for 100-mile participants. The event qualifies finishers for UTMB world series indexing and allows those who finish within the time limit to apply for the Western States 100 lottery.
Top five men and women in each distance receive cash prizes. Finishers of the 100 within the time limit earn a custom buckle; other finisher medals and multi-time buckles are also awarded. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
