The Land of Light 100k

The Land of Light 100k

The Land of Light 100k is an event in Norway, ME that combines trail running and road cycling across six different trail systems. Distances offered:

• 100K solo
• 100K duo

The fully human powered 100k course requires participants to run and cycle between parcels rather than travel by car. The course totals 25k running and 75k cycling. Run segments include short loops and lollipops at Virgil Parris Preserve, Roberts Farm, Noyes Mountain, Shepard's Farm, Twin Bridges Crooked River parcel, and Hawk Mountain, with the finish at an overlook near Bear Pond.

Relay teams may swap rider and runner only at transition points or trailheads and may alternate who rides or runs more than once. There is no single required road route for bike travel; cyclists may use any open public roads while following legal road laws. E bikes are not permitted. GPS and navigation are allowed; organizers may request GPS data from podium contenders for verification.

Aid stations are provided at specific parcels: Robert's Farm and Shepard's Farm will have full aid; Noyes Mountain and Hawk will offer water only, with some leftover aid moved as stations close. The event is cupless so racers should carry their own cup or bottle. All net proceeds benefit TruStrength Tomorrow and a portion is given to Western Foothill Land Trust.
