Course and logistics

The west-side ridge route passes through rainforest, includes stone-lined single trail and some stone stairs, and has sections that are shaded by trees. Runners must carry at least 1 L of water; there are three self-help checkpoints and one manned midpoint checkpoint at England Creek that provide top-ups, electrolytes and snacks. There will be no disposable cups. Post-race food includes sandwiches, fruit and drinks, and basic facilities at Cedar Flats include toilets, picnic tables, barbecues and water (boil before drinking). Transportation to the start is provided by event buses; parking at the start area is limited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
