The Blood Run - Lennox, SD
The event is a timed run on a 1.5-mile loop around an organic vegetable farm just south of Lennox, South Dakota. There is little elevation gain or loss on the course. The trail surface includes well-traveled dirt and some pasture, and the exact path depends on summer rainfall. The loop goes around vegetable fields, passing by a pasture with miniature animals.
Multiple timed race options are available: 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 36 hours, and a 24-hour 4-person relay. All races end at noon on Sunday. Participants and crews can use available camping spots. A fully stocked aid station with flush toilets is located on the loop. Crews are allowed to support from their campsite or vehicle and can spend time on the farm.
The event's name references the local state park, "The Good Earth at Blood Run," and is themed to mimic the experience of organic vegetable farming. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
