Course ascent figures are provided per distance, with the 50K listed at 5,164 ft and the Trail Marathon at 4,757 ft.

Aid stations and water points are placed on the courses and are named in the course plan, including Rancho Canada del Oro, Lisa Killough/Cottle Trail, Rancho San Vicente, and Calero Start/Finish aid stations. Drop bags may be checked at bib pick-up and accessed at the Calero aid station and select intermediate aid stations; all drop bags are returned to the Calero aid station after station closure.

Race management uses bib color coding by distance and enforces time limits and intermediate cutoffs; examples include a 4.5 hour limit for the half marathon, a 6 hour limit for the 16 mile, and a 9.5 hour limit for the longest distances.

Parking is at the Calero parking lot on McKean Road; carpooling is encouraged. Volunteers are requested to support aid stations and receive a future race entry in return. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
