Course and logistics
Base Camp and the start/finish are at 57 SW Keck Drive, McMinnville, on an approximately 1.5-mile loop trail. The course is mostly dirt and bark dust with a few tree roots; road shoes are recommended in dry conditions and trail shoes may be better if wet. The aid station will supply water, an electrolyte drink, and snacks; runners are encouraged to bring personal food and reusable cups.
Packet pickup and parking are close to the start/finish; participants are asked to arrive early to collect bibs. There are no refunds or transfers. The event is organized as a class project by Linfield University students. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
