Relay race details The relay is run at approximately 6,000 feet elevation. Teams must consist of three runners. Each team member completes four loops in the same order as the first loop; deviation from that order leads to disqualification.

Individual race details The individual format is a fixed-duration event in which entrants complete as many 5-mile laps as possible. Only individual entrants are eligible for the Western States raffle; completing at least eight laps is required to qualify. Raffle ticket allocation increases with consecutive years of participation. The individual race has men's and women's divisions and prize payouts for the top three places. Registration includes a Tanri hat and Saturday dinner.
